Details:
I was taking a long exposure pic for star trails. My son and I saw a very bright light in the sky. The light went out and then my son saw the green trail of light it left behind. I stopped the long exposure early and saw that my camera did indeed pick it up. I was so excited. I used my Canon Rebel T5i, exposure about 2 minutes, iso 1600.

Fireball? Looks like it. A fireball is defined as any meteor as bright or brighter than the planet Venus. Nice catch!
