It was bright green, then faded to light yellow almost white then bright green again as it exited our field of vision (2 pulses). Was like no other shooting star I have seen and I keep my eye out for them while enjoying the outdoors. The head was longer/flatter. My 12 yr son thought it was a firework... I don't agree. Was too high and streaking differently
