Remarks It was bright blue at the front, and orange on the tail. Not long like I've seen in pictures. It seemed like it was 2-3 chunks to me, all about similar intensity in brightness. Maybe that's not possible, I don't know. Only there for a second when it caught my eye, but I saw it through some gaps in the trees. It went behind the trees so I didn't see it "end".
