I live in a darkish sky location that's elevated (a few hundred metres up) and if you stand and look up long enough (about 10-20 minutes) you're guarunteed to see a shooting star. I heard a hissing sound from one a few years ago, it was probably the brightest i've seen. Just last week i arrived home late in the evening got out of the car and looked up and not 5 minutes standing there i saw a faint one, then it burned out after 2 seconds or so and then it was followed by another 3 or 4 in the same spot each about 10 seconds apart, all almost identical. It was breathtaking and i had never seen that before.
cheers
