A meteorite has fallen in Australia and there are spectacular images of the moment

For a few seconds, the night sky of Australia was divided in two: a fireball crossed it and that generated a huge flash. The images, which appear to come from a sci-fi movie, were captured by security cameras.

One of the videos was shared on the networks by the local police. In this sequence, we observe how the sky of Mount Gambier, south of this country of Oceania, was surprisingly illuminated while a brilliant object was crossing it.

As the police said via Twitter, the incident occurred Tuesday at 10:46 pm. In the social network, the uniforms joked: "We ask the neighbors to be vigilant in the face of an eventual presence of foreigners (including Alf himself). "Approach with caution," they added.

After the fact, roars were reported. Specialists think it was a meteorite burned when entering the atmosphere Terrestrial and disintegrated before crushing.
