Bright Green Fireball South of Albuquerque, NM.
A bright green fireball/slow moving meteor with a long white tail.
It was moving relatively slowly (not as fast as other meteors I have seen).
The direction was from east to southwest at a low angle on about a 20 degree trajectory relative to the southern horizon.
It was low in the sky and south of Albuquerque.
It lasted 3 to 7 seconds and disintegrated into yellow, red and white pieces before going over the horizon.
It was the largest, slowest, and brightest, "meteor" I have ever seen.
And the only green one.
