Was it a comet?

I was on hwy 151 South of Ignacio at home outside on a cell phone, letting my dog out and I always look up because the stars at this altittude are so pretty, when from across the sky came a what apeared to be a lit airplane falling or something like that. I wasn't the only one who seen it cause a driver by reported to another person said to my husband he saw a "shooting star" by I had more than a glance at it and it didn't look like any shooting star I have ever saw before, it looked more like the comet that past us about 5 or more years ago. I diffenently saw flaaming colors from the rear of this object Blue,yellow & orange.
