| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | At first I thought it was a flare because I've never seen a meteor glow green before. Also that night was very cloudy, so I know it was really low, under the cloud cover. I found a video on youtube that was quite similar to what I saw. Had I been able to video tape it, the size of it would have been as big as the one in the video appeared to be, and would have lasted a few seconds longer. The one I saw was brighter green that in the video. Video here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2MFvq4kJfmo |
