Woah

Thursday night, a meteorite fell in Western Canada, burning up as hit the Earth’s atmosphere and creating a brilliant flash over Alberta and Saskatchewan. Witnesses got to experience the brightest fireball the country has seen in over a decade.

    No way! It’s fake surely?

    Must be the season. The one I saw recently in Washington State was the biggest, longest, brightest I had ever seen. Nothing compared to this, but still impressive.

    @Darren: It looks real.

    @Dave2: Oh yeah I remember you mentioning that. Have never seen a meteorite anywhere near that bright myself.
