I and my son's friend Alex saw a green fireball over the Huachuca
(WAH-CHOO-KAH) Mountains here in SE Arizona about 12 years ago. It was huge,
the size of a pencil eraser tip held at arms length. The trail of green had
specks of yellow and red but the head was a bright green. Direction of travel
was SE to NW towards Tucson.
