Interesting recent footage of a large meteorite entering the atmosphere over Canada

Even though the link shows as an "x", it still works if you click on it.

Doesn't work if you don't have windows media players or if your employer is that misserable they don't allow such antics.

No link? Think I came across that on another site. Is it through a scope, several articles coming down?

Ah, long load. It is there.

ETA again.... downloaded it for me mac. Easier.

Link?

[Eric Mc]

When I click on the "x" the footage runs straight away on my Windows Media player.

In fact, on the actual site there are about six different films of this meteor caught from different locations in Canada.

One of the stories I read reckons they have a pretty good idea where remnants may have landed.

Don't have the right codec to run it and it won't allow me to download it. PAH!

Surely it's a large meteor not a large meteorite Eric

[ZR1cliff]

Any idea of the size of this meteor ?

Technically you are correct. If they find the bits, then those bits will be the meteorite.

[RegMolehusband]

Yes - I know
