Reader writes about Serbia/ Macedonia Big Meteor 12NOV2010
Hello,  I’m an italian guy, more or less at that time (friday 12th November, approximately 7.50 pm) I was travelling toward Ohrid, Macedonia (Google Maps) from the Albanian border!
 I was with other 4 friends and all of us we saw something that appeared like a meteor but nobody is expert about that those things. I was driving and I looked at the sky in front of me cos I thought that there was the moon, but the light wasn’t the moon’s light but something like a firework was falling from the sky on the horizon!
We were all surprised and this morning I checked on the web and I found that information on this website.
I hope that can be useful for your research! Unfortunately it was too short to take a picture!
I’m a bit curious to know what that was exactly!
Good luck!
Francesco
