Fake News! Everyone know that this only happens in Russia.
…but what if we’ve been living in a metaphorical russia all along?

You’re right, this is fake news. There’s no such thing as a clear sky in Michigan!

I was lucky enough to see the same sight, more than a decade ago, in Maryland. I have no idea why, but the fireball looked green.
I saw no stupid, road accident associated with it, so it happened somewhere else.

I happened to see last night’s meteor from my home in Toledo. I was sitting on the couch and through the north-facing windows I saw what looked like a firework coming down just beyond my backyard. I had no idea the actual distance and speed of this light in the sky; with no frame of reference I assumed it was much closer to me and the ground than it actually was.

Probably a copper sulfate but thallium, antimony, barium, manganese, molybdenum, and ammonium compounds can also give you a green flame.
Yea, right. It was aliens.
