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."

Fireball Seen over Eastern U.S. - Jan 30

A bright fireball streaked across the skies Saturday evening, prompting over 700 reports to the American Meteor Society.

The fireball was seen from South Carolina to New England around 6:15 pm eastern time.

In Falls Church, Virginia, Alex Salvador captured the meteor’s flight on his car dash cam.

People described it as yellow, orange and white, and noted it seemed to break apart or explode toward the end.

“Surprised me how low slow and bright whatever it was ..was,” a Fredericksburg resident wrote on the meteor society’s sightings page. “It was lower than the moon but seemed bright enough (behind trees even) to be as bright as the moon …”

“Seeing this was almost frightening, as it was so bright and took up 3/4 of the sky,” a Vienna resident wrote. “I physically saw it break into two and fizzle out as it disappeared. It was the most incredible thing I have ever seen.”

Fireball meteor disintegrates over Lviv, Ukraine

Mon, 25 Jan 2016 19:49 UTC

The sky of the largest city in western Ukraine was visited by a disintegrating bright white fireball on January 23, 2016, local time.

The entry of this space rock must have been impressive and has most probably created a loud sonic boom.

Major Daylight Fireball Over Southeastern US – January, 24th 2016
The American Meteor Society has received over 50 reports of an extremely bright daylight fireball on Sunday, Janu.... It was observed over a large portion of the north of Florida and south of Georgia. This event occurred near 10:25am ET time or 15:25 Universal Time.

Marc Fries (Research Scientist at the Planetary Science Institute located in Tucson, AZ – NASA) already stated it is a new meteorite fall! The estimated trajectory generated by Mike Hankey (AMS Operations Manager) for this event is “an absolute, spot-on bullseye [sic]” with the radar imagery obtained by NASA. More details will be provided as information arrives.

Below is the heat map of the witnesses and the estimated ground trajectory of this event.

Bright fireball lights up night skies of Finland

There were many of reports of a large, bright fireball that lit up skies over towns across southern Finland at about 8 pm on Saturday. Some eyewitnesses of the phenomenon said it looked like lightning or a camera flash. Still others reported they also heard a thunder-like rumbling afterwards.

The website of astronomy magazine Tähdet ja avaruus, which uses the assistance of astronomers from across Finland, says that there were some 200 reports of sightings of a bright flash of light in the dark skies of southern and western areas at about 8 pm Saturday.

According to Tähdet ja avaruus the flashing light was likely a meteorite but said they had not yet seen Saturday night's incident captured in a photograph.

If the suspected meteorite was photographed, it might be possible to determine its trajectory and possibly learn if the object may have reached the Earth's surface.

The gif animated image was captured by cameras at the Ebro Observatory (E. Blanch / CSIC-URLl – JMTrigo / CSIC-IEEC).

This bright fireball got brighter than the full Moon.

The tremendeous meteor was apparently accompanied by a strong boom as reported by many witnesses in central and northern Spain – from Aragon, Balearic Islands, Valencia, Madrid, Navarra, Basque Country to Murcia.

Fireball Over Southwest U.S. (Dec 22)

The object described as colorful and round fireball streaked across the western sky heading west just after 6:15 P.M., on Tuesday, December 22, 2015.

“It looked like a comet because it changed colors. Green to red. It was really cool,” stated Todd N Zabrina Martin.

“It looked like something entering the atmosphere and breaking up, reminded me of when the space shuttle burned up,” stated Jim Pryor.

Early unconfirmed reports are describing the “object” as a meteor that was seen over several states including Nevada and California.

As of 6:30 P.M., there has been no official confirmation on what exactly the object was.
