Meteorite Crashes Into Ocean Near New Brunswick

A meteorite that apparently crashed into the ocean off New Brunswick early Sunday prompted a flood of calls to a Moncton newspaper. Most callers told a similar story. The entire sky lit up for a few seconds, as if during an incredible lightning storm or fireworks display, then a tadpole-shaped ball of fire flew through the sky and appeared to crash nearby. The fireball - seen from as far away as Halifax and Fredericton - appears to have travelled at a sharp downward trajectory, passing Sackville, N.B.
