Whitehorse, Yukon Canada Meteor 30APR2011

Whitehorse, Yukon Canada April 30 1:00 a.m Meteor seen in Northern Canada
I just wanted to let you know this meteor was seen in Whitehorse, Yukon. We are located beside Alaska. My son was out with his friends late that night on a sand dune and they described it as a large, flourescent bluish whiteish ball with a lot of debris trailing behind it. I can't believe something like this was large enough to be seen from such far distances! They did not hear any sonic boom, but a swooshing static noise.
Marie Langenhan  Thank you Marie!


Whitehorse,Yukon at app 1-1:30 a.m. early morn on April 30/11
This Meteor was also seen in Whitehorse,Yukon at app 1-1:30 a.m. early morn on April 30/11. It was very large and a bright flourescent white and blueish color, with a trail of debris falling behind it. It also changed colors as it fell. There was a quiet static noise heard like a swoosh. My son was with his friends high on a sand dune when he saw it. I can't believe this was seen from such far distances as we are just beside Alaska in Canada. -Anon.

Flagstaff, AZ
I was in Flagstaff, AZ in the woods outside my cabin, at about 8:30 pm on April 30. It was quite cold and clear. The entire landscape suddenly lit up as if there were a very bright search light illuminating everything around me. It seemed the brilliance of ten full moons on a clear night. I turned to the northeast and saw the bightest blue-white-green meteorite I have ever seen. It was intially a large ball of light as it moved to the north/northeast, dissipating as it traveled and then faded out. It was truly spectacular. I shouted out loud in spite of myself for the magnificence of it. A real wonderment.

Cromwell, CT Fireball Large Meteor Fireball 9:01 pm 30APR2011
I was outside star gazing after walking the dog around the block at 9:01PM on April 30,2011 and something caught my eye as a bright flash over the top of my house as I was sitting in my chair looking south west at a bright Sirius. I looked straight up and saw a large fireball the largest I've ever seen moving very slowly, it was very very bright white, a hundred times brighter than Sirius and it shortly broke up into many fragments and disappear dead overhead. I only saw it a short distance but figure by it's size and speed it traveled quite a way across the sky. Wondering if anyone saw a better view.  Thank You for your kind report and drawing!!

My husband and I were sitting in our backyard tonight and also saw this. He had a longer view than I did and described it exactly as you did. We are from Springfield MA and the object was to our south/ southwest. When the fireball broke up it looked similar to an explosion or fireworks. We looked for news about this and found this website. -Gwendolyn  Thank You!

Stonington, CT

I was at a dark sky site in Stonington, CT tonight with my astronomy club. After seeing a few bright meteors we all saw a very bright flash in the sky but no fireball. We weren't sure what it was, but the time coincides with the report you linked. We also saw the Space Station fly over, an interesting night for sure.
Unfortunately, the flash was indirect, but lit up the whole sky. It was a brilliant white and lasted less than one second. At first we thought it might be lightning, but no storm approached and no noise. It was interesting as there were several other bright meteors before and after the flash. Two were in the southern sky and one in the northeast. -George B.  Thank you George!


Manhattan, NY
Guest358 (guest): I was on my back patio in Manhattan tonight and saw a very bright streak across the sky to my southwest, which brightened and disappeared. I think this is what other posters in the New York area have also seen tonight.

Baltimore, MD

Tonight at approx 9pm I was in front of my home here in Baltimore city when I saw an extremely bright fireball, moving from just below center of sky to the West/N.West. It was moving relatively slowly and was extremely bright white. It then fragmented, lighting up the sky for a split second. It was quite remarkable. I am send this email because I see that there are other sitings in the N. East that fit the description and time of my sighting.
I apologize for the format of the email, I have only just found your great website, and am quite tired from work. I will have a closer look at things tomorrow.
Thank you Very Much. Sincerely, Jonathan Hollands  Thank you Jonathan!

Andover, Massachusetts

My husband and I were driving Southwest on Route 495 North of Boston last night and witnessed this meteorite at 9:01 PM according to the car clock. We saw a bright white fireball moving across the sky from left to right, much closer and brighter than any shooting star we had seen before. It looked like a firework, with a trail of sparks as it flared brightly and then disappeared. We enjoyed reading the posts by others who observed this awesome occurrence!

Couldn't believe my eyes! Last night I was standing around a campfire, gazing up at the sky, when I saw what looked like a very large meteor shooting across the sky~ had a tail and everything! It was the brightest thing I've ever seen falling from the sky!! Amazing.. I looked around the campfire and nobody else was looking up! I knew I saw something really extraordinary!! MIchele 

Somerville. NJ

Around 9 o'clock last night I saw what looked like a firework shooting into the sky.
It was green and I told my girlfriend to come look at the fireworks her noisy neighbors were shooting up.
It didn't explode like a firework and I though nothing of it.
About twenty minutes later I was talking to my friend on the phone who was about 5hrs away in Pennsylvania who actually saw it while we were on the phone and said "Hey I just saw a shooting star!".
I asked him if it was green, and if it looked like a firework about to explode, he then confirmed but said it was greenish blue.
This morning I Googled shooting stars and came across this site trying to figure out what it actually was.

East Rutherford, NJ

I was attending the Bamboozle music festival yesterday night at the New Meadowlands stadium in East Rutherford, NJ, and just after sunset my eye was drawn skyward as I saw what looked like a fireworks or flare streak across the sky. It then broke up into several smaller pieces and winked out. This was in the northeastern sky. At first I thought it was fireworks for the festival, but when no more followed I realized it must have been a meteor. -Thomas E.

Hi, i saw a large slow meteorite (I think). It was a lot slower than a shooting star and it was like a fireball. It was over Georgetown Massachusetts. April 29, at around 9:20pm. I saw on your site that others saw a meteorite down south, but has anyone seen one up north?
Thanks, Rick

Witnessed this at a Beltane fire outside of Wertzville. I have never seen anything like it, and I tried to explain what I saw to my friends.. and was delighted to find your site with people also describing the fireball/explosion effect, as well as the colours. The tail was glowing white/blue towards the head with green tints, and the explosion was reminiscent of an explosion in star wars. And then it just vanished. Was very neat! -Rebecca

Selinsgrove, PA.

Dear L M Hunter,
On Saturday night, April 30, 2011, we were in Pennsylvania driving south toward Harrisburg, when we saw a bright, white mass flying through the sky, to the southeast. We were somewhere around Selinsgrove, PA. The ball of light was beautiful and was the brightest thing either of us had seen in the sky in our pasts. It reminded me of a lighted sparkler used on the 4th of July, and had a tail which broke up and fizzled out. Within a couple of seconds the whole thing was gone.
Susan in Rochester, NY

Low horizontal trajectory with flaming tail?  First thoughts it was flame from aircraft engine but no noise then i could see it breaking or burning up over the sea. Did not think meteors would travel in what seemed horizontal path in an easterly direction

Bahrain at approximately 9pm

My friend and I saw it in Bahrain at approximately 9pm. It was very bright and moving extremely quickly. At first we thought it might be a firework, but realised it was much too bright and fast moving. We west facing west and it was moving in a north to south direction. The following day, I saw a programme on the History Channel about meteors and meteorites and have no doubt what we saw was a very bright meteor.

I just thought it was a huge shooting star at first, but then my neighbors said it had to be a meteor. It was traveling horizontally in an easterly direction and quite slow, so there was enough time to see it properly. It looked like a bright white fireball which had a tail and it eventually disintegrated and disappeared. We had never seen anything like this before., what an amazing experience! :) Regards, Anna
