It was the brightest object I have ever seen. Nothing like any shooting stars I’ve seen. It was so awesome to see but I had no idea what I had just seen.

Remarks
It was a bright streak that appeared to get larger or more rounded at the end and disappeared. Think it went from green to white when it disappeared. Happened so fast.
