A man in west Belfast has captured the moment a fireball raced across the sky in Northern Ireland.
Hundreds of people reported seeing the “shooting star” across the sky over Scotland and Northern Ireland.
Joe McNeill from Dunmurry said it was “absolutely amazing”.
The UK Meteor Network said it began receiving reports of the fireball at 22:00 on Wednesday.
Scientists are using video footage captured by the public to work out whether the object travelling across the night sky was a meteor or space junk, and where it came from.
