Thousands of people in Ireland and the UK watched in awe as a green fireball streaked across the sky.
The fireball was first spotted after nightfall. There were many eyeballs on this burning space debris.
The fireball was captured on video from many different angles. Below you can find some of the best ones.
It is an interesting example of a quotidian phenomenon. According to the New York Post, some witnesses claimed they could hear the meteorite as it flew by.
As the green fireball flashed across the sky, it gave off an eerie green aura as it disappeared behind a cloud.
One observer told the Daily Mail that he was spotted in West Cumbria looking over the Solway at about 2 pm. There have been similar fireballs in the past, but nothing like this.
There was a lot of speculation about the nature of the meteorite, from it being a space rock to aliens.
Scientists at the UK Fireball Alliance agree that the fireball was probably a piece of space junk.
John Daly, a planetary scientist and member of the Fireball Alliance, said that there is a high chance that this is space junk. The fireball looked slow and had a shallow entry angle which is typical of space junk. The space rocks are a bit quicker.
There were no known space junk or satellites that could account for the fireball.
It was worth something because it was a beautiful and interesting spectacle.
