☄️Reports coming in of a bright meteor fireball over the UK tonight at 8:20pm. If you saw something, or captured dashcam/doorbell camera imagery, please submit a report and any pics you have to: fireballs.imo.net/members/imo/re… #citizenscience

Did you see the big #fireball at 8:20pm tonight? This video is from Nick James in Chemsford. The #meteor may have dropped a #meteorite, and your report could help find it => ukmon.imo.net/members/imo/re…

Drum roll - the calculations are done. The result ... a #meteorite probably did land in England last night, but it's too small to hunt for. #FRIPON estimate 100g or less. Needle, haystack, finite resources, etc.
