Can't believe I saw this walking on a narrow street (York Ave.) in NYC with city lights so bright it seems almost impossible I observed this. It was very large, whatever it was.

it looked like a plane or helicopter that was flying way too fast - I thought it was a UFO it was traveling so fast - and then the front end "exploded" green
