If this object was travelling East to West and was also visible in Boston,
I saw the persistent trail of green smoke that was hanging in the sky for a
half hour or more. My friend saw the fireball itself go by (I was,
unfortunately, inside getting a drink of water at that moment). Somehow my
recollection is that it occurred on a hot day in July 1964 or 1965. But it
could have been a hot day in April 1966.
