A Utah astronomer says the meteor that passed through Utah on Saturday might have left some valuable minerals for unsuspecting locals. ksltv.com/502562/after-loud-b...
Seen and heard this while sitting on a tank 5-6 yrs ago at a night time varmint hunting west of Benjamin TX. The colors the meteorite put off were awesome the boom was just that a boom.
I went to that big meteor crater in Arizona a month back that had a lot of cool stuff about meteors, and now this meteor is in my home state Space rocks are crazy
The air here is awful, though. It's full of smog and arsenic. There is another recent, local newscast from about a week ago that says Salt Lake City will be unlivable in 10 years.
As a child watching Lost in Space a meteor storm was always exciting With speeding meteors smashing in to their flying saucer... Edited in Tough built saucer that can deflect 50 ton boulders going 75,000 miles an hour
I will never know for sure, but I remember when I was kid under 10 years old I was walking with my mom and siblings in some park in Pomona California. And I was about 40 feet behind from my family and it was night time, I remember seeing a green glittery flash/sparkling object going down instantly no more than 20 feet away from me. It subsided almost instantly when I saw it going down. It was so fast I was confused what I saw. But I am sure it was no firework because the sound did not relate to any firework I ever heard. Also there was no pop sound, just the sound of some debris falling down and yes the surrounding area was pretty silent besides the birds and instincts making their sounds. I wander even today what it was.
I was sitting outside a coffee shop in Austin one summer a few years ago. In the company of several people. I heard 3 booms coming from the sky. Only one other person heard it too. The group broke up and I walked across the street got in some shade with my coffee and started watching some dog rescue people showing their dogs. As a woman was petting a dog all of sudden dirt flew up all around her. Just her. Just that one small spot. I went over to talk to the woman and she said she seen sparks all around me ! We just looked at Each other and walked away. True.
I've seen aot of these especially during the night shift driving hours but, never a boom. Closest thing to it is you really see it burning and the smoke it causes before crashing into some mountain field's
I saw a meteor at night flash thru the sky in South FL but ofcourse non of my friends experienced it with me, I found some ppl in FL that saw it also but I was so sure I’d hear the boom 💥 but nope
Yea from my understanding it's supposed to be magnitise so one of these weekends I'll have to go out to the places im assuming it crash landed and tie a magnet to my dogs and hopefully make some money
A meteor/Shooting Star is something common to see, but what made this meteor uncommon was the Sonic Boom. It shouldn’t be to crazy to see a Shooting Star but, It sure is beautiful, and something to gasp about. Lol
@@bradykay9322 They do not always land.. Most if the time they burn off before touching the earth. That’s why they fade away. Shooting Stars are almost common.
Idk about you guys but the flaming debris @ the end of the video made me chuckle 😃. Especially due to that reporter in the beginning talking about how awesome it is to collect up all the space rocks 🪨 lol
We all are in Nitro, WV and was watching a movie projected onto the side of the house laying out in the yard and seen a flash throughout the sky, then seconds later heard a distant 'boom' and could not figure out what it was. I believe it might have been a meteor now.
@@Wild-Wisdom WV is literally slow at everything! If they ever do repair a road around here, it takes so long they gotta start repairs within a month of fixing it again.
@@edwincarter5932 😄 I noticed, I'm a truck driver from kansas but drive through there a few times a week and every time I hope it's going to be finished but nope, it never is
So much fun! Good luck hunting down those valuable meteor fragments but also wear a Hazmat suits! You might fight a meteor ores with valuable material or even uranium. Happy treasure hunting! ⛏😉
Well shoot, I was just barely waking up at this time so I missed it. If I ever hear any loud booms I assume it’s coming from Hill Air Force Base which is right by me. Those dang jets flying over me so low I can’t hear anything though.
I got lucky my dad when he wss in mexico was near a meteor comet crash site and him and others grabbed it and a week later when he returned to cali we literally got $200k his backpack was full of those rocks. So we bought a house together. Paid off
That dude at the end who thanks Michael, sounds like he hates life and is broke, or just tired of his life with the way he thanked him at the end of the segment 😂😂😂 just listen to it. For real. 🤣
We have several rocks that we suspect may be meteorites. They were ones that my grandfather collected in the 1920s and 1930s. Where could we take them for appraisal?
I'd give your local science museum a call. They would be able to validate them. I'd also document them with a camera to make sure no one loses them. And get receipts for anything turned over. Good luck!
Could u tell me witch way the camera at snow basin was pointing when it caught the meteor passing over! Was it pointing no west, west, or south west???
*FIRE MARSHALL BILL WORKS FOR NASA NOW?* If you don't know who "FIRE MARSHALL BILL" is look him up on here. This dude is famous, or infamous, not sure which.
Cool. At least it's better news than the typical dailies. Also, the sonic boom is definitely a sign that it got pretty far into the atmosphere prior to burning up (due TO the atmosphere). A lot of people don't realize that meteors must travel in ORBITS (as opposed to movies where they just come straight on down, lol) prior to even coming close to striking Earth's surface (or liquid). Anyhow. It's pretty funny how uneducated people are; mostly thanks to Hollywood disaster films. 😂🤣😂
I found a needle in a haystack once and won the Super Lotto three times, but there's no way in Hades I'm going on a wild goose chase to Kansas in hopes of finding something worth a few hundred bucks. Oh, and I have a bag of Bigfoot droppings in my cellar.
I heard a boom the other day down in South Texas which must’ve been what this was because it was the loudest boom that I’ve ever heard like a bomb being dropped
The video reminds of ancient worship of Aton, “gods sun”. Which is symbolized by 2 mountain peaks and the sun. Which is seen is almost every state seal and globally. Yet nobody even questions why the symbolism of all countries have a sun and many times a mountain.
Guys don't worry about it, it got where it was supposed to arrive, idk why they even mentioned it 😅 this isn't an occurrence that's unknown, it's not a meteor and they know that, the bang is what you could refer as an obsertion of impact it's a negative infraction that spews from a craft before landing or entering a mass of water, it's not going to be found, because it arrived at it's destination
@Erinlyn2 are you making a joke about Florida thunder ? Lol First time I experienced a north Florida sonic boom i was all alone. I screamed, ran around like an idiot, hyperventilated, hid in a corner and cried. NOBODY had told me!!!!! 😡 I was 43 so I’m a little embarrassed.
@@hemlock4519 lol. no, i seriously heard a loud boom, like a sonic one. i know what you're talking about as far as our thunder & lightning storms, though. lol
