Meteor over the M4
Hi all,
Just curious if anyone else saw the bright meteor yesterday evening? I was driving west along the M4, just past the Membury services at 17:28 (I looked at the car clock when it happened). There was a bright dot lengthening to a long bright streak and terminating with a sudden brightening before disappearing. It was heading roughly west in the sky, and started about oh I guess 40 degrees straight "up" above me (about as high up as I could see through the windscreen). It lasted perhaps 2s although these things are hard to judge when you're driving! Anyway, I thought it was pretty spectacular to appear so bright despite it still being lightish in the sky. Cheers Barnaby |
