I saw huge, I mean huge meteor this morning around 5:40 A.M PST Broke up spectacularly looked like it was headed right a downtown L.A/Santa Monica. It was something to behold.

I’ve seen those when I was driving a lot, late at night. They are spectacular.

They are probably a foot or two across at most.

Lots of light is generated by little mass when it hits the atmosphere.

Would you call it “truck” sized or more “Yugo” sized?

I understand that some of the spectacular ones can actually be pretty small objects.

That wasn't a meteor. That was a Chinese Missile Test.
