I've seen bright 'shooting stars' but this was nothing like that.
I wasn't actually watching the skies but it was so bright I was instantly drawn to it.
You simply couldn't miss it.
I've never seen anything so bright green, it was a sight to remember. Better than when I saw moon bow (night time rainbow).
