 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 5916429


o.k. i suspect that a few people have slipped some
imagery in that has nothing to do with this meteor.
i don't think the pieces of a broken-up meteor would
get that far apart. just another UFO video i guess.

I don't know man, this is what she wrote unde the vid:

"Noticed this as i was in my yard - Antrim, Northern Ireland. Managed to capture a few seconds of it. Meteor Shower?"

hoax? somehow i don't think so.

yes. those flames don't look like they are moving
at 20,000 mph. CGI

and i don't know if a telescope and very sensitive
imager could capture such a shot.

Thanks, I thought it was too wild to be true. Anyone else got the live meteor radar echoes on? Got a sound on it now like feedback on a microphone. Hoping I won't miss the next one if there is one coming.

Hit play button, skip the intro and click the one below, says live meteor radar echoes. Mostly static now.

my understanding is that it was one meteor that moved
at a 45 degree angle and it broke up and kept a
pretty tight grouping and then flamed out. (and i
have seen several of the photos)

o.k. do the arithmetic. the meteor is going 20,000 mph
and the jets are lucky to be going 800 mph. just how
effectively are a bunch of jets going to follow such
a thing that enter the atmosphere at 75 miles and 4 seconds
later flames out at 50 miles altitude?

Re: Fireball Over UK & Ireland
No jets guys. I watched it in all its glory!

It was an impressive fireball which seemed to go on for 20-30 seconds.

It was travelling West towards Northern Ireland over North East England...

Stood to watch it and seen/heard not one jet!

The spin stops now...

I just want to figure out what it was, and if in fact there were more than one of these objects because the reports are widespread and observations difer regarding direction and time.

I think there must have been multiple "fireballs"...

I KID YOU NOT. Just walked outside - upstate new York, and looked at the sky and saw a meteorite. Regular, white, medium size, at the zenith, which to my perspective at 10:00 pm ET is just west of Casseopeia's chair.

firstly, why were they even following it

and second, someone earlier mentioned that perhaps these jets may have been hi-tech jobs to be able to go so fast.

so, why were they following it?
