Cosmic event-Two fireballs cross US and Canadian airspace

Hey, did any of our friends in Canada see these things?

Nasa tracked them.

Great balls of fire have been reported swooping over Eastern Canada and several U.S. states. Even NASA's on the case. There are different theories about what was behind the sighting of those fireballs. A NASA spacecraft got a closer look at one of the possible sources today. The spacecraft flew past Hartley 2 -- taking closeup pictures after the comet made one of its closest passes by Earth this week. But one expert is skeptical of reports that any fireballs came from Hartley -- which is roughly 1.2 kilometres wide and spews deadly cyanide gas. Scientist Peter Brown says his meteor group at the University of Western Ontario tracked one of two fireballs while the other was tracked by NASA's Meteoroid Environment Office.

About time they've arrived... Took them long enough.



Sorry, couldn't resist =P

Invaders from Mars! I watched that on Showtime last night. I liked it a lot as a kid, but WOW...cheesy as hell now.

Anyways, I've seen probably 3 to 5 articles on fireballs streaking across skies in the past few years - I wouldn't think it's anything too crazy. Unless it has something to do with all the doom predictions for November around these days.

But I personally think they are from Invaders from Mars.

Run run (new video)

Chances are it was part of the Taurids meteor shower which has been known to produce decent fireballs in the past.
We have already past the debris cloud for Hartley.
