| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | I initially thought it was someone shooting off fireworks. It was bright green with a yellow outer perimeter, and shaped like a typical meteor. It was quite large - larger than a typical firework explosion. The sky was very clear and there were many stars. It was a very rural area, and it was very dark. I was riding in a vehicle and saw it out the driver's side of the windshield. |
