A greenish blue flying object

As I was on my nightly walk along the Charles River, I noticed a greenish blue object heading East to West in the Northwest sky. I first thought it was a helicopter and it seemed to be at about the altitude a helicopter would fly at. After about a minute the object seemed to speed up and follow an erratic course to the North that would not be possible for any aircraft I am familiar with. After another two minutes there was a muted flash and and the object disappeared leaving an almost rectangular shaped outline in the sky.
