This was an incredible sight. I was not sure what I was seeing because of the bright green color and the length of time it was visible. It was the same green as a traffic light and travel relatively slowly across the Houston sky. Amazingly beautiful and slightly frightening! Something I will never forget.

Remarks
It was very long and was the same bright green as the meteor. It was a beautiful green streak that moved across the sky in front of me.
