I’d say they’re above “You”!

" “The color of light that the meteors produce depends on their chemical composition,” AccuWeather Meteorologist Dave Samuhel said.

“Different chemicals in the meteors produce different colors as they burn up while entering the Earth’s atmosphere,” Samuhel said.

For example, meteors made from primarily calcium will give off a purple or violet color, while those made out of magnesium will appear to have a green or teal color. " (Courtesy of Accuweather)

Rod Serling graduated from my high school. He used to come back every year to see his drama teacher, Mrs. Helen Foley, and address the student body in the auditorium. I never saw him without a cigarette in his hand, which sadly contributed to his early death. Really interesting guy!

It looked Teal colored to me. Saw it from my car on the way to Orlando airport. Somewhere around 8:30-9:30.

Good someone else saw it. What direction was it? I just happened to look up when it went by and saw it just over some houses as it moved. This was to the East. Only for maybe 7 seconds tops, if even that.

I am pretty sure it was way to the East?

Fireball event

Lots of other people saw it and made a report. 41 people made reports to the American Meteor Society.

It was very pretty.

I live in Santiago and it could have been a helicopter I heard around that time passing overhead.

Saw one very similar a few weeks ago. Low on sky too. We may be in path of small meteor shower.
