A spectacular meteor filmed in the north of England

On Monday, a meteor lit up the night sky in Derby, England. A security camera accidentally filmed the fascinating scene.

Thank you very much for the link depotoo , I am also looking for links that would work for you Americans and often its links do not work for me.
An asteroid filmed I think it's rather rare ... there is the one from Russia which had done a lot of damage.

Yes, it has been so rare. I think with all the cameras people have now on their doorbells, in their cars and then on the streets more will be captured.
It’s is incredible to see. Thank you for sharing it. I know I hadn’t seen that one before.

in recent history. A bus driver was killed and three others injured on a campus in southern India when a piece of rock fell from the sky. This unfortunate event is however rare: since the beginning of the 20th century, no other death has been recorded, even if there have been injuries ... and a lot of damage.

The biggest threats are: There is currently no alert for the coming years, at least concerning known near-Earth objects. Friday, April 13, 2029 (no joke), the asteroid Apophis should pass 35,000 kilometers from Earth, close enough to cause landslides on its surface, but luckily not enough to presents a threat to us ... at least not in the current state of its orbit.

We also talk about the asteroid Bennu , which could hit our planet ... in 2182.
