Did anyone see the meteorite to the northeast of Port Hedland at about 6pm 10/09/12. Best one I have ever seen. It was broad daylight and brilliantly bright with glowing debris streaming off it. After it disappeared, I assume into the Indian Ocean, you could still see a stream of smoke still in the air. Absolutely awesome. I hope others saw it.
Welcome to IIS. You've certainly arrived with a bang - or is that a flash? In 40 years of being interested in astronomy I've never seen a daytime meteor so this is quite a spectacular observation. The International Meteor Organization is interested in this sort of thing so you should consider lodging a report.
You guys are so lucky to see a Daylight "Meteor"
A "Meteor" only becomes a "Meteorite" when it has reached the ground.
I hope you stick around and regale us with more great sightings in the future
Cheers
