PERTH CBD fire ball/meteor at 05:49hrs local time 10MAY2011
At 05:49HRs local western Australia time on the morning of 10/05/2011 I saw a fire ball/meteor streak across the sky 12KMs north of the CBD.
It was blueish/yellow/orange. It had a tail and started to break up as it completed its arc across the sky.. Is there any where I can report this and find out what it was? Regards. Phil.-philip.d
Albany, Western Australia bright green fireball ~530 am 10MAY2011
Guest858 (guest):Appox 530am in Albany Western Australia (400km south of Perth)I saw a slow moving bright green fireball to the north east. It looked to be about a third of the size of a full moon, with little dust trail. It looked to fall in a NNE direction, at a low angle over Mt Manypeaks a small town 40kms from Albany, I have seen a few fireballs before but nothing remotely like this. I looked it up in wikipedia
Success, Australia ~5:45 am
I saw it! I was taking my usual morning walk at about 5.45am this morning in the southern suburb of Success and I saw what looked like a shooting star - like a bright star with a tail and it appeared to trail away to the North from where I was seeing it. It was amazing. I have never seen one before and I felt very lucky to have viewed it. -Anon.It was blueish/yellow/orange. It had a tail and started to break up as it completed its arc across the sky.. Is there any where I can report this and find out what it was? Regards. Phil.-philip.d

O'Connor, WA 6163
I saw a meteor or something like it at 05.50 this morning (10th May 2011) it crossed the sky in the east heading north very low to the horizon.
It was the largest non manmade object I have ever seen in the sky.
It had a long tail and had flashes of colour , green, blue and yellow, it took about 15 seconds to cross the sky, I'm guessing the colours came from different elements in the rock.

I saw the meteor at 5:50am at Raymond road. it looked as though it was a few km's away, very large and bright green/white colour.. couldnt believe my eyes as it shot through the sky for around 20 seconds, So blessed that me and my husband witnessed such an amazing sight. No footage though, it was too quick to get a camera :-( Rachel and Adrian McClutchie
Safety Bay & Golden Bay 6:50, May 10.
My daughter saw this near fireball near Safety Bay - while a passenger
in a car on the freeway this morning. She described it as green - then
blue/orange before it disappeared in a flash of white. Time about
6:50, May 10.
My son was driving on the same freeway - but near Golden Bay (15kms
further south). He saw the identical green fireball at approximately
the same time.
Curiously a few weeks ago residents in this same region experienced 2
mini tremors. Others heard reverberating sonic booms - particularly
coastal residents and residents near Bullsbrook.
A similar fireball was sighted in W.A back in May 1st,1995 (at 2 am).
About half a million people between Bunbury and Toodyay saw the
fireball that time. Lots heard this roaring sound. Mundaring Seismic
observatory picked up the ground vibration wave for almost two
minutes. Witnesses in the Midland area saw the fireball stop dead in
the sky and its tail invert. Then there was this enormous blue-white
light like a welding arc flash, and an explosion which caused things
to fall off the shelves. Then when it had finished with Perth, it
travelled all the way up the coast terrifying people up as far as
Sunday Island in the Kimberley region of Western Australia.
Some people (e.g. a W.A. geologist named Harry Mason - See his article
Bright Skies) postulated that the 1995 incident was possible evidence
of E/M weapons testing/weather manipulation.
Maybe they're running new E/M weapons tests.(?) -Gary & Linda T

Floreat WA 6014
Saw a very fast moving, very bright greenish meteorite(?) travelling low across the Eastern sky, just below the very bright Venus and Jupiter, at 5.50am this morning. Only saw it for approximately 5 seconds before I lost sight of it behind some trees (assume it had finished its journey). Lots of tail and sparks. Absolutely amazing to witness. Not the "Space Station" that has been featuring on news reports. - Tina C.

i was out walking around 5.50 am and saw the meteor, bright green across the sky. amazing!
Yes, I saw it as I rode my push bike along barrington street to work, it looked green and blue with a tail, I first thought is was a firework, but it was going down - not up, then it just stopped and kind of "dissolved" in mid air.
Do prepare a six-month food and water supply for your family. Grow a garden. Become responsible for yourself and family.
I saw it too. May, 10th 2011. At about 10;00 a.m in ALgeria ( North Africa ). I was driving on the highway.
oui moi aussi je l'ai vu, j'ai vu une étincelle puis une fumée dans le ciel, jetais aussi en voiture sur l'autoroute à Alger.
