Experience Level 1/5
Remarks My son and I both saw it come straight down in our right peripheral . It looked like it was coming straight down and it was dark green l. At first I thought it was a firework... but as we watched it come down we can see it was a meteor of some sort..we actually Google it while coming home . My other son was 4 miles ahead of us driving home and saw it as well
