Experience Level 1/5
Remarks Hello. I am a police officer in north east ky, during my patrol last date I was operating my cruiser on interstate 64. Out of no where the sky turned bright green and a meteorite appeared in the horizon. It lasted only a few seconds but intrigued me to do some research on the web. I have located this sight and other reports of this sighting. Just wanted to share mine. Definitely cool.
