| Remarks | 3 distinct pulses of whitish light as it passed over my head, from the North-Northeast, which was what caught my attention to it. It then slowed down slightly, and flared an intense bright green as it got to approx 10 degrees above the West-southwestern horizon, finally fragmenting into many orange particles. It was very impressive! |
