View a huge Fireball "hitting" Tenerife - the meteor with his magic glow was shot from La Palma!

March, 10th. 1:57 AM at the top of La Palma. One Camera near “Monumento de Infinito”, a sculpture by famous Lanzarote Artist César Manrique installed 1985 on the occasion of the inauguration of the Roque de Los Muchachos Observatory. Just a few kilometres away a second Camera directly at Roque de Los Muchachos. More than 2200 meter above the ocean and a sea of clouds we´re looking to Tenerife with it`s huge Mt. Teide, Spains highest mountain (3715m). The two Cameras are programmed to shoot timlapses of the rise of our galaxys core followed by a crecent moon and three planets in the dawn above the nearby Island.Suddenly this bright meteor approaching to the Island appears in one frame of the timeapse. It might be a common iron-nickel meteor which causes the intense greenish glow from the vaporized outer layer while traveling to the atmosphere.

The main picture obtained from the timelapse is a slightly cropped single frame shot with Sony A7rIII and Samyang 1.2 / 85 at f 1.8 - 6s exposure with ISO 4000. Because of a slight Calima (Dust from Sahara desert which regulary is blown to the Canary Islands) the seeing wasn´t the best near to the horizon, but we can adumbrate the Antares region rising just right of the meteor.

The Picture gone viral a little bit with 10000 Likes on two IG-Accounts of The World At Night (TWAN) and roycebairphoto with his N I G H T S C A P E R • Photo Award, over 12000 likes at the FB-Page from the APOD (Astronomy Picture of the Day) and thousends of shares and comments all over the social media channels. So thanks for the supply and enjoy the short video :-)

It’s amazing how in just a number of decades with a camera or video nowadays that capturing what can become a deadly fireball and with modern technology turn that fireball into something a lot more beautiful with colours that sets the night sky alight😀😍

[@wolfxlover]

Wow! And thanks for the information in the description, by the way. This is definitely a sight! :D Nice video.

[@josephPresto]

Beautiful!

[@2fathomsdeeper]

From the color, the composition was barium, boron, or copper. Later looks like sodium and iron. Unsure of what caused the blue.

[@fehrpics]

It`s in one singel frame - there's no "later" and I don't see any blue, only green

[@robertbate5790]

Fascinating. I've seen plenty of time lapse sky shots before, but not in 3d. Impressive but slightly scary too. It highlights the immenseness of space. I think it is the real horizon that does that, rather than immersion effect of vr.

[@no_name_doesnt_care]

It seems a laser ray and not a comet...

[@fehrpics]

green laser rays do not origin from space and do not start suddenly in thesky. For sure it isn't a comet, it's an meteor.

[@Uriel.45AC]

Totally agree

[@no_name_doesnt_care]

@@fehrpics with time lapse it seems like a ray, however, I find it very strange the phenomenon of how there are several volcanoes affected by what seems to be a meteor, on the internet there are more news, these strange objects that they call meteor why do they always crash on the craters? and not on a side, or a forest or a city ... it seems that someone is directing them in that direction, it seems to have been specially made....very very strange..thanks for your reply

[@fehrpics]

@@melissacastillo1073 Neither are you. But that's so obviously not a weapon. Firstly there's no impact whatsoever on the surface. Secondly it appears from nowhere and dissappears almost just as quickly. It doesn't even reach the surface. Obviously it's a asteroid or comet fragment the burnt up in the upper atmosphere.

great video - respect for showing what took it.

[@NITIN25101990]

between 0:52 to 1:02, there are trace of objects moving in the reverse direction, can you tell me what's that??

[@fehrpics]

Good observation! If you look closer, they aren't moving (different appearance and distance), but light up and go out one after the other - so geostationary satellites which are illuminated by the sun while the earth (with the satellites) rotates.

[@josephPresto]

@@fehrpics i was wondering if there were from a recent Starlink launch being grouped up like that.

[@fehrpics]

@@josephPresto Starlinks are much faster - 1s of this timelapse are more than 15 min, so in round about 6s they circle ein time aroung the globe.

[@NITIN25101990]

@@fehrpics thanks , I also though it will be satellite but instead of geo stationary I thought about ISS or other.... Yes I observed it's position is fixed in sky but unable to correlate with geo stationary satellite.. thank you very much

[@Gribbo9999]

Any chance it might have been a laser atmospheric sampler associated with the telescope on Tenerife?

[@fehrpics]

Good idea, but it's not in line with the Observatory at Izaña and it's nearly impossible to shoot the end of a laser beam middle in the air.

[@ckdigitaltheqof6th210]

Well, its possible to witness the stream path of the laser from the atmosphere, regardless of it came from the sky or ground, so it may implament some kind of SDI project or path marking of a sky gaze instrument. Unfortunatly the frame rate wasn't any higher to determine it as debree fall or light particle stream.

[@fehrpics]

@@ckdigitaltheqof6th210 In the not existing case of a Laser it would obviously did not origin out of the sky getting brighter and brighter traveling to the earth. This fit's perfect to what is happening when a meteor enters the atmosphere and getting hotter and hotter because of the friction. Even when we suppose the absolute unlikely case it's additionally absolute unlikely to shoot the beginning of a laser beam traveling through the air. It's just a meteor - no aliens, no devilthing, no SDI, no Laserwhatever - just a fuc.. boring meteor like thousend others.

It was on your planet though. And if Americans continue to mess up the planet at the present rate it will come and bite you just right there on "American soil". One planet, no escape, sorry.
