It looked very close to the jeffco airport in superior/Broomfield Colorado. I would maybe contact them for radar? Could be cool. It was concerning because I thought it was something crashing to earth (or airplane/helicopter) but it was a bright orange with green and yellow tones shooting across the clear night skies and looked like it was heading downward. It was as bright as a firework but again the trajectory was all wrong and it was a single orb traveling extraordinarily fast. It was the bigger than any shooting star I have ever seen.
