Guest925 (guest):Monday May 16 -Alberta at 7:57-ish.Did anyone else see a meteor travelling from east to west off to the north of highway 16? Being not really awake -waiting for the bus - i first thought it was a kite as it had a tail but then realised it was a meteor as it was moving and sparking - bluish Sorry - apparently, I'm still not really awake - it was at 6:57 (not 7:57)and north of Spruce Grove, Alberta Canada! It took a bit to register as it was full daylight which is why for a second, I thought it was a turquoise blue kite!Pretty though.

Guest49 (guest):From east of Christchurch New Zealand, We have sightings of asteroid/meteor early this morning 20 May,Friday around 7:20am New Zealand time. It was a good size fireball with orangey trail going in one direction to the east pacific ocean in a very high speed that lasted for over 10 minutes. I took video but it was in the last 5 minutes of it because we have trouble finding the camera to start and camera to work the video mode as I was also talking on the phone with my husband at his work,his workmate come out and seen it too. Wondering why its not in the news here in NZ though -Cherry

Jennifer Newton-Just: Thursday May 18, approx 11:30pm -12:00am @Ardrossan, Alberta. I had my eyes closed trying to fall asleep when all of a sudden an intensely bright light prompted me to open my eyes. I thought it was Edmonton's police chopper with its spotlight on but the flash of light appeared to plummet rapidly out of the night sky therefore ruling out the helicopter theory.The flash lasted for only a split second -Much to my dismay!It was in the NE sky and it appeared to be the size of a golf ball. The flash appeared to be white -- very bright. I never noticed a color. It was over way too fast. Brightest light I have ever seen!

I Saw a meteorite in Clovis, California at Approximately 9-Pm West Coast Time-I Was sitting in a Parking Lot Talking with my Husband-and just so happened to Look up into the sky directly in front of me and appeared directly at a slanted angle was an Object blazing Red at the front/ biggest part and it had what seemed to be a white glowing Tail behind the red part- The Object dove down into the atmosphere from above-and then like Magic exploded- and disappeared what seemed to be a few thousand feet still above the earth. I was stunned and felt very privileged to see this momentarily miracle before my eyes. For, I had never witness anything quite like this before. Amazing, and sometimes even that word cannot describe the events that Mankind sometimes witness- within a Mortal Life time existence.--Tana Lindley
