Details:
Went out just before midnight and was treated to quite the opening of the sky show. The fireball slowly made its way from South to North disappearing near Polaris and splintering into a number of smaller pieces. It took over 3 seconds to cross the sky and was brighter than Vega which had passed nearby. One of the most amazing meteors I've ever seen. Taken with a Pixel 9XL on night sight.
