A question for all you space junkies out there:

At 23:10 EDT Sunday June 12 I saw what looked like a meteorite.
I was in Glen Cove, Long Island, New York, looking approximately
North-northwest at the time.  I saw a bright, fast-moving light
that lasted for about 5 seconds.  It flared and burned out at the
last second.  There was no sound (I waited for about 1/2 min) made.

Any comments?  Was this a meteorite?  Someone testing out his flare gun?
