Observed from South Shields Pier Tyneside at 20:20 tracking NW to SE across the moon. Bright green lighting up the sky. Seen many but nothing Like this one brilliant.
I saw this too just after 20:20 GMT 18th Jan 2014. Falling East to West (10 o'clock to 4 o'clock) fast! Lit up bright green as it entered the atmosphere and had a long green trail... was awesome to see! Marc Chesterfield Derbyshire UK
