| Observation | Yes |
| Remarks | I first saw it through cloud cover but very bright like air craft landing lights, I first thought it was steady bright light rather than a burst of light. It appeared to be coming towards me, passing over my left shoulder. It seemed to burst into clear sky with a bright green florescent flash leaving a long gleaming green trail, about three hand widths in length. Then it was gone, I heard no noise. |
