Tonight's Meteorite 22.12hrs

IrishHomer · 2018-11-19 23:43:44

Anybody else see it? I was driving west towards Kinegad from Dublin and at 22.12hrs a meteorite dropped in front of me. It was exactly same as the one seen in Texas USA last week. Raging I didn't have a dash cam :(

Just to be pedantic, it's only a meteorite if it hits the ground. Otherwise it's a meteor.

This is the time of year for the Taurid meteor shower, which produces an unusual number of bright meteors/fireballs.
