    I Saw something on the date you posted this, it was in between orions two feet and his belt, more towards the belt. I dont know what it was but it was like a very big star just appearing for about a second then dissapearing

    Probably a meteorite.

  3. Will says:

    Yeah but it didnt move at all, it just appeared, and then dissapeeared, as if someone had just turned on a star then turned it off again

    It is possible to see a supernova from Earth but whether you’re observation is a supernova or not it is impossible to tell.
