JOHANNESBURG – A meteor fell over South Africa, lighting the sky up like a UFO!
Late on Saturday, November 21, Johannesburg and Pretoria residents saw something zip behind the clouds, lighting up the sky.
“There was sudden flash. Like an orange stripe in the sky, followed by a very bright explosion where the sky lit up as if it was daytime,” said one eyewitness.
A number of CCTV cameras caught the object on tape. Take a look at how big it was!

Luckily, the meteor disappeared without striking any heavily populated areas. Scientists are still trying to find where it landed. Such events are rarely witnessed, and its brilliance indicates it could be of significant size for study.
