| Remarks | This was my first green meteor sighting. I witnessed one in 2017 that I have never seen reported anywhere. It was bright red, it entered the atmosphere off the eastern coast and continued east. I couldn't identify if it was a meteor or a shuttle but did have a red green glow. This happened at 230 in the morning on the 16th of September 2017 off the coast of Holden Beach, NC. |
