| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | At first I thought it was a local firework fizzling out. I have seen many, many shooting stars. I never saw one like this, with green color, and vibrant trail. It looked so big I thought it was a nearby small firework at first. Then I realized it was a meteor. |
