Bright glowing green sphere that vanishes, very close and very big

I was sitting in the car with my boyfriend and looking at the stars out my window when a bright almost neon green ball flashes across the sky. My boyfriend saw the light but wasnt lookin in the same direction to see the object. It had a dark green core with glowing green around it and was HUGE.

This was not something that happened way up in the sky where you would normally see stars. This was abouve some trees in the distance and when I went back out the next morning trying to judge how far away this ball was in refrence to the clouds, the clouds seem to be much further away. Which made me question that this wasnt something burning while entering our atmosphere. I'd really like to know what this was.

The best way to describe the movement was that it kind of "fell" in the sky and disappeared before the treetops. Disappeared in mid air!
