Was one of the top 5 ever witnessed. Too bad I didn't have the camera up but will never forget.

Remarks
was a glowing trail that was spiraling and illuminated by the moon. Was one of the most brilliant ones ever witnessed by me in 36 years of watching the skies. Broke into several fragments. It was rather low to the horizon so possibly space junk?
Terminal flash
Observation
Yes
Remarks
It was a series of possibly 3 brighter areas of flashes that fragmented
Fragmentation
Observation
Yes
Remarks
It fragmented in several separate pieces that changed from bright, green, white and then a orage glow from the main trail
