A mysterious UFO-like fireball flashed across the Utah sky around 4:30 Thursday morning.
According to Fox13, Patrick Wiggins, NASA/JPL Solar System Ambassador to Utah, described the phenomenon as a ‘bolide’, a bright meteor that explodes.
But since no one in Utah reported hearing any noise associated with the meteor, we wonder if the object really was a meteor that explodes.
The footage shows two objects. Besides the so-called fireball we see a smaller object. Even after the explosion of the fireball the smaller object is still visible and intact and continues its way alongside the fireball.
