Anonymous Coward User ID: 1403333 United Kingdom 09/22/2012 08:51 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Crazy Shit Experts said the meteors could be space junk, possibly satellite debris, burning up on entry to the atmosphere. People from across the UK have reported seeing bright objects in the night sky, thought to be meteors or "space junk" Coastguards in Northern Ireland took calls from people who saw the objects from Coleraine on the north coast, to Strangford Lough in the south east. The lights were seen as far north as Caithness in Scotland as well as in Wales and Norfolk in East Anglia. Experts said the meteors could be satellite debris, burning up on entry to the atmosphere. The lights have also been reported in the Midlands, parts of north-east England and in Glasgow and Edinburgh. Brian Guthrie in Grangemouth near Edinburgh, who watched the objects pass through the sky, said it appeared to be something "pretty large breaking up in the atmosphere". "I've seen shooting stars and meteor showers before, but this was much larger and much more colourful." [link to www.bbc.co.uk] |

"I think that actually this spectacle tonight might not be associated with that." "I think it's something just by chance has happened to come in tonight, some piece of actual space junk floating around the universe for billions of years has just picked tonight to fall in across our skies, or a satellite that's been up for some years has decided to burn up," he said.
