Experience Level | 2/5 |
Remarks | I was driving south on I-65 between mile marker 245-230. It was bright green/white with a small orange tail and seemed closer to Earth than any other shooting star I've seen before. It appeared, disappeared, and then appeared again but in a continual straight line for about a second. |
