Experience Level | 3/5 |
Remarks | I have never seen anything like this. I googled meteorite falling from the sky. I came across a youtube video from Peeskill, NY of one 9 years ago and it looked very similar but with a smaller tail. Same green color!!!! I want to know if there is anyone else who saw it. It is bitter cold tonight, so I am certain there wasn't a lot of stargazing. |

Remarks | it was a bright green comet-shaped with a long thin tail. Slower moving than a shooting star. I'm still in awe. I opened a door and it was descending from the sky. I saw it fall into the treeline. Probably 2 seconds. It did not appear as I was looking, so it had been already moving |
