Full Description & Details

i was starring at this object in the sky and i really didnt think anything of it .Then my friend said whats that thing in the sky ? I said it looks like its on fire . it moved across the sky as if it were a plane the glowing light flicker'd and looked like it went all the way out once but then came back just as bright ! All of a sudden after a minute of starring it stop'd on a dime in the sky. It just sat there still and almost looked to be increasing its altitude but without moving in any direction except up. Next its double backed the same way it had come and out of nowhere this shooting star flew past and this wasnt just any star i caught it out of the corner of my eye and it lasted so long i had enouph time to turn my head look at it for 1 second and watch it burn out . ok get ready for the real kicker after the shooting star a piece of this object broke / jumped away from it and free fell to the ground i imagine up valley yountville ruthertford st.helena area . next 3 more pieced free fell in a perfectly vertical line and just disapeared along with the object i magine they hit the earth near mt. veder or somewhere near.

Can sighting be explained as any conventional man-made or natural object?
