Fireball Above Iceland

On 2023 September 13, near the northern most point of Iceland, the night sky exploded with the northern lights and a spectacular fireball, above the Arctic Henge monument. I was about to move our group to another spot when this tennis-ball sized space rock entered the earth atmosphere and burned at an altitude of 60-90 km above us, becoming as bright as the full moon for a moment. Such meteors are very rare to witness. Even for a frequent observer like me it took three decades to finally record one in video! I was on my biannual Aurora PhotoTour. My Icelandic colleague ‪@stjornu-saevar‬ appears near the clip’s end, on a phone interview with the local media about the meteor. https://babaktafreshi.com/workshop
