“#Viral video shows huge meteor fireball streaking across sky<\/strong>”
\n<\/p>\n

\n Incredible footage of a fiery meteor streaking across the night sky last week has gone viral online.<\/p>\n

Captured from a research boat off the coast of Tasmania, the video shows space debris flashing a brilliant green before harmlessly breaking apart.<\/p>\n

The vessel, called the RV Investigator, is operated by Australia\u2019s Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organization (CSIRO).<\/p>\n

The national research group broadcasts a 24\/7 livestream from a camera on top of the ship.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe meteor crosses the sky directly in front of the ship and then breaks up,\u201d CSIRO Voyage Manager John Hooper said last week.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt was amazing to watch the footage and we were very fortunate that we captured it all on the ship livestream.\u201d<\/p>\n

He added: \u201cThe size and brightness of the meteor was incredible.\u201d<\/p>\n

According to a CSIRO blog post<\/a>, the meteor, which was bright green, app<\/a>eared on November 18.<\/p>\n

It was spotted by the bridge crew and reported to the science<\/a> staff on board.<\/p>\n

At the time of the recording, Investigator was in the Tasman Sea about 60 miles off the southern Tasmanian coast.<\/p>\n

According to a CSIRO blog post, the meteor, which was bright green, appeared on November 18.<\/p>\n

It was spotted by the bridge crew and reported to the science staff on board.<\/p>\n

At the time of the recording, Investigator was in the Tasman Sea about 60 miles off the southern Tasmanian coast.<\/p>\n

Investigator is currently carrying out seafloor mapping for Parks Australia and running sea trials for marine equipment.<\/p>\n

CSIRO astronomy expert Glen Nagle said the footage acts as a reminder that space is far from empty.<\/p>\n

\u201cOver 100 tonnes of natural space debris enters Earth\u2019s atmosphere every day,\u201d Mr Nagle said.<\/p>\n

\u201cMost of it goes unseen as it occurs over an unpopulated area like the southern ocean.\u201d<\/p>\n

He added: \u201cMany meteors were once asteroids, travel<\/a>ling through space on their own trajectory.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs they enter our atmosphere, they become meteors \u2013 and their entry can be visually spectacular.\u201d<\/p>\n

Thousands of bits of space debris \u2013 many of them meteors \u2013 are tracked by NASA throughout the year to keep an eye on their trajectories.<\/p>\n

Fortunately, most are too small to pose any threat to Earth, and those that are dangerously large aren\u2019t projected to hit our planet any time soon.\n <\/p><\/div>\n
