I believe I could see a reflection on the object that may have been from the very bright moon. I am wondering if that suggests it is a metallic meteor? I’m an Amateur so could be wrong. The object seemed darker than the tail so I wonder if it was quite low and had cooled down. The tail seemed to be slightly striped with the 3 different colors noted. It was seen by 3 people.
