A bright green meteor swept across Australia’s south coast of Tasmania, and researchers captured the fireball on camera as it parted over the ocean.

The meteor lit up the night sky on Wednesday (November 18) at 9:21 pm local Tasmanian time (5:21 am EST and 10:21 am GMT). A live camera on the Investigator research vessel, which is operated by the Australian National Science Agency, CSIRO, captured incredible views of the fireball as it descended from space and disintegrated over the Tasman Sea.
