Duration

Length
40°
Remarks
bright light that shot across the sky and the train instantly grew in size but looked smoky. the end of my viewing was very large and green. the smoke appeared to be a mint color. i thought it was a shooting star but the sun was up already and it was extremely close and much larger than any other "shooting star" i've ever seen in my life.
Terminal flash
Observation
Yes
Remarks
the beginning of what i seen appeared small in size at first but grew large quicker than the entire experience lasted. the end was extremely bright green and look as if something exploded in thin air. the only after effects I noticed was the cloud of what appeared to be mint green smoke.
Fragmentation
Observation
Yes
Remarks
The flash was very bright the begin with and I thought something really bad was about to happen. it happened out of no where and i was waiting for a loud noise post my experience, but that never happened.
