Meteor Over Edmonton, Canada
December 11, 2008
I apologize for the back-to-back videos, like to keep things varied at lbacker, but I wanted to make sure everyone saw this video. Filmed at 5:30PM on November 30th from Peace Officer Adam Baxter in Saskatchewan, he noticed the incoming fireball and turned his vehicle down the street to begin filming.
“What started out looking like a shooting star suddenly erupted into a ball of flame and shot across the sky, disappearing behind the tree line,” he said.
Geologists and local residents have yet to locate the meteor and remain concerned that if they do not find it before the snow melts in the spring, their chances of locating it at all, are very slim. The Edmonton Sun has more on the event and what local residents are saying.
