Fireballs on the Rise
There are increasing meteor reports recently all over the world. More debris from the Px tail...
ZetaTalk: Live Chat, written November 21, 2009
- "When the debris from the tail of Planet X first started arriving in ernest, in 2004, the establishment chose to call this space junk. When the public became alarmed at the amount of space junk falling to Earth they tried to enhance the story by claiming that two satellites had crashed into each other, but this just made a bad story worse. Since fireballs have not gone away, but continued apace and if anything gotten worse, a new term has been used - asteroids. This is debris in the tail of Planet X, which is increasingly turning toward the Earth, hosed out from the N Pole of Planet X. This is why the wobble has gotten more violent, why electromagnetic disruption of dams and airplanes has occurred, and why blackouts will become more frequent. There will also be displays in the sky, some of which has already been noticed, from the electromagnetic tides assaulting the Earth's atmosphere. Stay tuned, more to come!"

Reports of a "bright light" and an "orange glow" were received by police across Scotland and the north of England around 9.40pm.
The Met Office tweeted: "Hi All, for anyone seeing something in the night sky, we believe it was a meteorite."
A spokesman for Strathclyde Police said the force had been "inundated" with calls about a bright object in the sky across the west of Scotland. A Durham Police spokeswoman said a number of calls came in around 9.45pm from concerned members of public who had seen a "bright light or a fire in the sky" and believed it may have been incidents involving an aircraft. "
It has been confirmed with air traffic control that there are no incidents of aircraftin difficult and nothing registered on radar," she said. "
The sightings are believed to be either an asteroid burning out or similar which has been restricted to the upper atmosphere only." Grampian Police said reports of people seeing a "flare or a bright object with a tail" were received from across the region. And Dumfries and Galloway Constabulary said numerous calls were made about a "large ball of fire in the sky" across Annandale and Eskdale.
One user wrote on the force's Facebook page: "It was awesome to see! Really big and bright!" Hundreds of people took to Twitter to report similar sightings across Scotland and the north of England. People described seeing a bright fireball moving across the sky with a large tail.
The Kielder Observatory also reported the sighting of a "huge fireball" travelling from north to south over Northumberland at 9.41pm. The Observatory posted on Twitter: "Of 30 years observing the sky #fireball best thing I have ever seen period."

Large Meteor Cruises Over Colorado, Fireball Seen From 3 Other States
February 8, 2019 at 3:01 pm
DENVER (CBS4) – Several people witnessed a large fireball traveling high in the sky over Colorado early Thursday evening. It left a smoke trail that lasted for several minutes according to reports.
A CBS4 viewer in Morrison emailed and said, “I just saw a meteor fall over the western side of town. I was looking west. It left a contrail and was big. ”
The following video was submitted to our partners at KKTV in Colorado Springs. You can see the fireball just to the left of the traffic light.
Cloudbait Observatory says the fireball occurred at 6:13 pm and was widely seen in Colorado, especially along the Front Range. It was also witnessed by people in Utah, New Mexico and Wyoming according to the American Meteor Society.
Preliminary analysis from the Cloudbait Observatory indicates the fireball was likely overhead in the area around Ridgway and Ouray, Colorado. Scientists are still working to determine more information about the path of travel where it may have landed.

Did you see a fireball in the skies over Milton Keynes?
Tuesday 22 January 2019
Published: 17:34 Tuesday 22 January 2019

The man was locking up his bicycle when he saw a bright white object travel slowly downwards in the direction of the Network Rail building. He watched as it broke up into smaller red-coloured fragments. "It was about the same brightness as a firework and lasted for about 5-6 seconds. It was travelling much slower than a shooting star," he said. The commuter added: "It seemed a strange time for someone to be setting off fireworks, so I googled for meteor reports and saw that people all over the country had also reported it at exactly the same time." The astronomy website UKMON does indeed report other sighting around the country at exactly the same time.

VIDEO: 'Fireball' meteor streaks across Virginia sky Wednesday morning
Posted: Jan 09, 2019 01:48 PM EST
Updated: Jan 09, 2019 04:20 PM EST
FRANKLIN COUNTY, Va. (WRIC) -- A 'fireball' meteor lit up the Virginia sky shortly before sunrise on Wednesday.
A video posted by Twitter user 'Midlo Snow Maker' shows the meteor streaking across the sky at Smith Mountain Lake in Penhook, Virginia.
8News received several other calls from viewers who witnessed the 'fireball,' which the American Meteor Society (AMS) describes as "a meteor brighter than the planet Venus."
AMS said on their website that they received over 190 reports about the fireball, which occurred around 6:35 a.m., and was seen from New York State to North Carolina.
According to AMS, the fireball ended its flight somewhere in the Atlantic Ocean, northeast of Norfolk, Virginia.

Jan 9 2019Bright Fireball over the East Coast

The AMS has received over 450 reports so far about of a bright fireball seen above the East Coast area on January 9th, 2019 around 6:34am EST (11:34 Universal Time). The event was seen from Connecticut to South Carolina.
Trajectory
The preliminary 3D trajectory computed based on all the reports submitted to the AMS shows that the fireball was traveling from North-East to South-West and ended its flight somewhere in the Atlantic Ocean North East of Norfolk, VA.

Fireball?
Based on our first analysis, it looks like the event was a fireball. A fireball is another term for a very bright meteor, generally brighter than magnitude -4, which is about the same magnitude of the planet Venus currently visible in the morning sky.
Several thousand meteors of fireball magnitude occur in the Earth’s atmosphere each day. The vast majority of these, however, occur over the oceans and uninhabited regions, and a good many are masked by daylight. Those that occur at night also stand little chance of being detected due to the relatively low numbers of persons out to notice them.
Additionally, the brighter the fireball, the more rare is the event. As a general thumb rule, there are only about 1/3 as many fireballs present for each successively brighter magnitude class, following an exponential decrease. Experienced observers can expect to see only about 1 fireball of magnitude -6 or better for every 200 hours of meteor observing, while a fireball of magnitude -4 can be expected about once every 20 hours or so.
So, if you saw this one: congrats, it’s a nice way start the year!

Cameras across Japan capture flash in night sky
FIRE IN THE SKY: Several cameras across Japan captured a flash in the night sky that astronomers believe was caused by a roughly 4-inch fragment of an asteroid or comet burning up when it hit the Earth’s atmosphere. https://abcn.ws/2FLyzTu

The first meteor shower of the new year will peak Thursday night as the Quadrantids dart through the January night sky, according to NASA.
The peak of the shower will unfold from the night of Friday, Jan. 3 into the early morning hours of Friday, Jan. 4. One of the benefits for stargazers is that the peak occurs during the new moon, allowing for a darker sky.
Those in the Northern Hemisphere could wind up seeing the most meteors.
