Bolide Meteor Streaks Across Texas and Oklahoma Skies

Last Wednesday night, an object was seen streaking across the skies in Texas and Oklahoma. This object was most likely a meteor about the size ranging from a human fist or as large as a human head, which entered the Earth's atmosphere and created a fiery display.

It is unclear whether the meteor reached the ground. However, according to the Meteor Hunter's blog, there is a possibility that some debris landed around the Edgewood are in Texas. A number of all-sky cameras captured the event, as well as the OKC Sandia Sentinel radar.

You can also see a compilation of some of the TV news reports about the meteor's entry.
