| Name | Mark B |
| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | I have not seen a bright green one before. From road angle on maps and viewing angle, I would guess it traveled almost due north, possibly a little west. We live in Glendale, MA, so have little light pollution and good sky viewing when not cloudy. |
