Nov 18 A live stream camera fitted to a research vessel investigator operated by Australia’s National Science Agency CSIRO on Nov. 18. The fire was discovered at 9:21 pm local time on the 18th. The oceanographer is studying about 60 miles south of Australia, but on Wednesday it flew a meteorite provoking the crew.
“What we saw when we reviewed the livestream footage surprised us. The idea of the size and brightness of the meteorite was unbelievable,” said John Hooper, the ship’s managing director, in a press release.
Local media was “flooded with spectacular reports,” but according to CSIRO, no additional photos or sightings were seen at this stage. The International Meteorological Organization, which tracks meteorites, has no reports of fireballs at sea. The investigative character investigator thinks the burning rock was the only good sight because his death made the dive, the quantity is likely to have fallen into the sea.
“We were so lucky that we captured it all on the ship’s live stream,” Hooper said.
