Meteor Lights Up The Prairies Skies.

November 21st, 2008 · No Comments

Roughly 5:30 MT yesterday a fireball soared across the Prairie sky and made contact with earth somewhere in central Alberta. “It was very bright yellow, with hints of green in it. It stayed in the air … for about two to two and a half seconds.” witnesses said. Those who didn’t see it certainly heard the impact as they said it made a “rumbling” noise when it hit.

Apparently that people who see a fireball with their own eyes have a hard time judging where it came down, because fireballs stop glowing when they are 50 kilometres above the earth. Currently officials are still trying to find the location of the impact.

Here is the best footage I could find:

Cool eh?
