Bright Green Object Moving Rapidly In The Sky Over New Jersey

 
Date:  March 5, 2012
Time:  Approx: 8:15 p.m.
 
First off, I'm at the least a skeptic about these topics (UFO's). I also believe that the military should be afforded their privacy as they develop things to keep us safe. Since I do not believe that what I saw compromises out defense, I want to share what I saw last night.

New Jersey - Route 22 west bound near Branchburg. In the northern sky I looked up to see an extremely fast moving object that had a green light on what appeared to be the aft end of whatever it was.
 
It happened so quickly that I was not able to say for certain what altitude it was traveling. It was around 8:15 pm, dark outside and fast-moving, so I did not see any shape.

If it was at high altitude, then there is no way that it could have been man-made, but I suspect that it was at a lower altitude, perhaps 5-10,000 feet, based on how low on the horizon it was (appearing just above the tree line). 
 
I was driving and I do not know why I looked up, perhaps another light caught my attention but I cannot say for certain. 

I immediately thought rocket, based entirely on the speed, but the thrust was very short and appeared somewhat rounded; not like any rocket that I am familiar with. The size of the green light could be compared to an afterburner, except it was more round in shape and distinctively green (almost like a neon - green). 
 
If my memory serves me correctly, it seemed to move a little slower at first, but accelerated to speeds that I have never seen. I am not 100 percent certain about this, though - my most prominent recollection was how fast this thing disappeared.

Clear night - after I saw this I looked around and noticed that there was a reasonable amount of air traffic around.  Because of this, I would be surprised if nobody else saw it.
 
I was half-expecting to see something (perhaps military) converge on that area but nothing happened - in fairness, whatever it was came and went extremely fast.

There are no military bases nearby that I am aware of that would be responsible for a launch like this and it was in too populated of an area to be messing around with something weapon-like or experimental aircraft.  Also, it was flying too "horizontal" and moving too fast to be something of a science project.

I have no idea what it was - maybe some laser-generated illusion but that seems far-fetched.  I don't think it was a meteor or military in origin:

1. Meteor - problem with this is that there was not any sign of a tail, and the color was too green and too bright. It was also low on the horizon and traveling straight and horizontal.

2. Military something (plane or other test item) - the only explanation would be if something went astray (X plane on a long mission had an emergency/guidance malfunction) because NJ is not a very good place to keep a secret (too many people). 
 
I saw no evidence of any crash/impact or intention to land - the trajectory was straight and fast moving until it QUICKLY vanished from sight.

I'm not a believer in the third option so I am at a loss.
