zero to very fast moving star and meteor glows the night green. Crash & burn at Vandenburg '95

So long ago now i can't remember the exact date, but but this was the only sighting of anything odd that i ever had and thought i'd describe it here. Summer of '95 laying in the pool looking up into the stars.......... i noticed one of them was moving. Thinking it was probably just an aircraft of some sort i followed it (visibly) for about 10 or 15 seconds and it stopped. I kept my eye on it so not to mix it up with the stars as it was about the same size and brightness of most. After watching it where it stopped for another 10 or 15 seconds the "star" accelerated at what appeared to be 90 deg. direction from which it original came from.... leaving a streak and promptly disappeared. I continued to watch the sky thinking i would see something else and approximately 15 or 20 minutes later i did. I believe it was a meteor coming into the atmosphere from the south east towards the north west at the same place as i just saw the moving "star" (as if it were marking the location). All this taking place (generally) over Edwards AFB and also near China lake Naval station...... i always wrote it off as possibly a military ufo, but a couple years later i heard a story right hear on nuforc about and object that crashed (touched down)and burned on the coast near vandenburg for a week. One last thing.... my cousin i found out just recently saw that so called meteor that lit up the sky green so bright it could have been day time, so i'm thinking there were atleast more people that saw that to possibly comfirm the date. My opinion is....if this "star" was a craft from this world then we have some wicked awesome technology.
