Bethsmummy   10 #1 Posted January 3, 2013 Me & my 9yr old saw a cool meteorite (I think) at 9.30  It was extremely bright white. Moving exceedingly fast & was very low on the horizon. Infact so low that I think it landed/crashed.  Anyone else see it?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Jakester   10 #12 Posted January 4, 2013 (edited) Yep it was the predicted quadtrantid meteor shower last night although a bright moon may have outshone it in parts.  On a different note I think it's amazing that the Voyager1 spacecraft has now left our solar system and is now entering deep space after 35 years of travel!!
