| Remarks | It was a light green around, and while it was going down the center turned super bright ------the center looked white--- like the sun, then the light turned into a low green thin line and faded/died off immediately right after while going down. I'm not sure as to whether I saw multiple tiny thinner lines break off as well; my mind/memory tells me I did near then end and that they were super small, but I'm not confident. |
