A greenish fireball shot across the sky.

In St. Johnsbury, Vermont, on March 25 at approximately 10:15 PM I had just gone to bed and turned the bedroom light out. I was facing the bedroom window that faces the east. The blind was up. I saw a green fireball streak the window moving east but slightly northeast.

The "fireball" was in a slight oval shape with the front point a light green, the middle section darker "Kelly" green, and the back tail, orange yellow. It moved across the window within 1-2 seconds and disappeared behind trees while never losing altitude.

My feeling was that it was both very large and high up, out of the earth’s atmosphere, or about the size of a small plane and flying at a higher altitude a small plane would fly at. It was really hard to say how high it was because it was dark and it moved so fast.

I immediately wondered if it was "northern lights" or a meteor.
