We saw a lime green, rectangular shaped light shoot (stagger) across the sky in Columbia, MD on 2/23/02

It was a green color. It was the color that the flashing cursor on old computers used to be. It was traveling east and it moved vertically in the sky. It wasn't like it was moving gracefully, it was more like staggering as it went forward. It was fairly low in the sky, but not low enough to see it's features. It almost looked like that old video game blip.

We are not crazy people. At least I don't think we are.

Thanks!

NUFORC Note:

Possible meteor. Please see other reports. The two witnesses from Maryland are not crazy. PD
