16MAR2012 Brian Canfield, Ohio, United States 2010 EST 6 sec W-SE Facing South Flaming green ball As bright as the sun, but only about 1/5 the size of a full moon. Behind mostly. Also slighty flaring left and right with the green fire. About 80 degrees high in the sky, and was moving slightly faster than a satellite.
