I am 60 years old and have lived in some remote areas of Western Australia where the night skies are clear and beautiful, I have seen many meteors including a couple of huge fireballs traversing the sky but have never witnessed anything like last night. The green light was intense like an explosion.

Th bright flash was all i did see really as it was low on the horizon ie I didn't see an object in trajectory i just saw a huge ball of green light on horizon which intensified like an explosion.
