Full Description & Details

Driving westbound, toward home, out of the Manassas area. Also had my teen-aged Son in the vehicle. Road was dark, sky was dark, with some clouds here and there, no storms, otherwise very clear night...stars were out and commercial air traffic were on their normal approaches & departures to /from Dulles Int'l airport.

Suddenly, the sky to our west began to become increasingly brighter, clouds sillouted and sky lit up almost like daylight in the area to the west...a brilliantly bright green glowing object, extremely large, trailing some smoke, or vapor, crossed our field of view, and traveled horizontally, it appeared then to take a rapid descent to earth. It either landed, or crashed, but there was no sound asosciated with the incident...and no residual smoke rise, etc....

We were puzzled as to what it was...it was extroadinary, and was very large, moved rapidly, and didnt resemble, or behave, like any previous meteor activity that we had wotnessed...and no trace of any downed aircraft,missile, or meteor was ever reported (to date& to our knowledge).
