Fireball streaks across South African Skies

Last Saturday during the late evening hours, a meteor streaked across the skies in South Africa. The fireball entered the Earth's atmosphere around 11 PM local time and tracked across Gauteng, Mpumalanga, Limpopo and Botswana. As it streaked across the sky, it had a blue-green color.

It believed to have landed in the Lampopo province. There were several reports that included sonic booms, or sounds of an impact.

If you happen to have video footage of this fireball, the Johannesburg Planetarium would like to have a look. There are additional reports and information about the meteor on their webpage. The footage could be used to help make a determination where the object may have landed. There is an interested in recovering any possible debris for study.
