[meteorite-list] Strange Meteor

[JoshuaTreeMuseum]

We saw a strange meteor tonight from Plymouth, Indiana. We were facing south 
and I looked east just in time to see a very bright meteor falling at a 45 
degree angle. I've never seen one quite like it. It looked like a very 
bright star dropping in a straight line with no tail or flashes or changes 
in brightness. Then it suddenly went out. It literally looked like a falling 
star. It was so bright, I thought it was an airplane or car light reflection 
in the windshield. I've seen lots of meteors, but never one like that.
