Looked much closer to me than what an individual seen 10 to 12 miles away and wasnt green. Possibly at begening when first looked up. I stoped my vehicle and watched for impact or s moke in feilds. Was very unobstructed view wide open appeared very steep angle . possibly what i saw was a big fragmentation. Looked about as far away as a commen bottle rocket. If any further info wanted just e mail me. It seemed extremely close possible impact to immedate to moderate left of stated position
