It had an enormous head (those I have seen before have only been thin streaks and quite high up in the sky). This one was fairly close to the ground. It only lasted for a second or so. I did not hear anything as I was in my car at the time. It appeared about 2/3rds the size of the moon. Of course, distance to the object would be a factor in its apparent size and I am not suggesting that it was anywhere near the size of the moon. Yes some fiery objects at the tail end I was driving, unable to stop and made report when I arrived home about 30-40 minutes later.
