I work for an airline I constantly look up. I worked several years overnights and I have seen plenty of shooting stars. I own a dobsonian for pete sake. I have never seen anything this large and green. I can’t believe I just stood there waiting to here a boom when it landed. I was on my front porch and for a second I almost thought a plane was going down or something. It was so green. I was calling in my dogs when it happened. I believe I said it out loud…..what the f0@k.
