Everyone loves a good meteor sighting, but for some lucky folk in Arizona yesterday, this was an occasion they will never forget.
A bright fireball meteor shot across the sky in the early hours, captured by one man on his dashboard camera.
It would be fair to say he was taken by surprise, so there is some liberal use of swear words in this clip below:
Here’s Mashable:
“It was the most amazing thing I have ever witnessed,” LeAnn K. in Star Valley, Arizona wrote in a meteor report for the AMS.
“It lit the area up as if it were daylight outside and it was only a sliver moon and pitch black out.”
“Saw a flash of light out of the corner of my eye,” Richard C. said in an AMS report filed from Roswell, New Mexico. “Looked to my right and saw the metro ball and sparks falling with smoke trails behind.”
That’s all well and good, but how about these incredible photos of the vapour trails left behind in the morning?
Oh nature, you never fail to deliver the goods.
