Spectacular meteor in Alberta

In the sky over the settlement of Alberta (Canada), local residents saw a blue glow with a blue tail, which seriously frightened people. Some thought that a nuclear war had begun.

The meteorite overcame the atmosphere of our planet on the night of February 22. A violent explosion followed: so powerful that it was observed from some border areas of the United States.

The size and brightness of the flash made it difficult to immediately identify the object. Quite a few people decided that a military shell was launched. Residents later went to the International Meteor Organization to report their observations.

The body was incredibly bright. It literally passed over the heads of the Canadians. For five minutes, the bright footprints did not disappear. Residents were happy when they made sure that the phenomenon was natural, and not the idea of the military of any country.

The bright light was caused by the heating of the meteorite during the fall. The temperatures are always so high that the trace of the body does not disappear for a long time.
