I doubt that there is a chance of a video showing up, as I saw it myself and it wasn't there long enough for someone to get vid even on their cellphone. I sure as hell hope there is one out there as this ball of fire was unbelieveable.
I was driving E on Petroleum Way at apx 5:30 after work and it appeared out of nowhere, a fireball with a green tail. A DISTINCT fireball, so I wouldn't call it a UFO except that it IS definitely unidentified. To clarify, it was a fireball that was dead set in front me OUT OF NOWHERE, directed southbound and it was rather large and seemed to be faltering. I thought it was going to crash into the Petro-Canada refinery tank farm as I was driving beside it. I waited for something to blow up while I started driving faster. Then as I was driving home southbound on Sherwood Drive I saw the fire trucks heading north on Sherwood Drive.

) could be indicative of changing temperature as the energy from atmospheric entry is ablated, particularly the red seen near
the end of the objects passage. As far as sound goes, I'm a little stumped, as I would think that such an object would make more of a racket on
impact. I'm looking forward to seeing more of this event unfold, and I'm also happy to be a part of this community.reply posted on 20-11-2008 @ 09:26 PM by Unknown Truth

I'm finding this peculiar, the differences people are noticing in the fireballs color.
My father, brother and I, all witnessed an orange tail (as have others), while others are witnessing green or blue. We weren't even together when we seen it.
What's up with this I wonder?

Appearantly...yes
"At dusk, while looking out of the west window, someone in the tower saw a bluish-green light moving from east to west -- a meteor, " Herwig said. "And it completely dissipated before making contact with the ground."
Bluish-Green light.
Reported about an hour ago...(Google)

the pollution behind it.. the green also comes up sometimes in lightning storms here in Edmonton/Sherwood Park. But not always.. the tail of the actual fireball and fireball itself was bright orange.

Green fireballs are a very common occurrence during the annual Leonid meteor shower. Here is a NASA site concerning them:
leonid.arc.nasa.gov...
and here are fairly recent occurrences of green fireballs in 1997 and 1998 during the Leonids:

actually, fort mcmurray is only about a 4-4.5 hour drive from edmonton. I live in fort mac and was unfortunate that i didnt see the flash. I heard about it from my sister, who lives in lloydminster. She said her place lit up, and she thought a truck was coming straight at her house
also, about half an hour from lloydminster, in marshall, Saskatchewan, reports of actual rumblings were felt. thank goodness my sis and bro in law moved out of there a few months back...would hate to see this turn into an "andromeda strain"!

Im not brilliant in all
things space but Im assuming that the ISS doesnt move around much right? It would appear more like a satellite? This had some big time speed on it
and a tail. Also, this was travelling in the opposite direction of what you are stating. reply posted on 20-11-2008 @ 09:32 PM by Unknown Truth

Ah, I see. That might explain why when the sky lit up, it had an eerily pale green light to it.. At least from my vantage point it did.

I witnessed a similar event in Whitehorse in the early 2000's.
The bright flash and orange flaming tail left a streak of smoke or cloud in the sky for hours. Looked like a contrail of a plane.
The meteor struck in the early morning hours when the sky was still dark. The two flashes I saw lit the sky up like it was daylight. I was looking out my window at the time and saw everything clearly in the flash. In fact, it was so bright, it actually triggered the photo sensitive cells of the street lights to turn off!
Now as I observed its descent until it went behind the mountain across the valley from where I was, I couild have sworn it was going to land in town (about 25 km away). As it turns out, it in fact landed hundreds of km`s away.
Point being, they can be very deceptive to someone observing on the ground.
Here`s the story of the one I saw
www.space.com...
and this one describing the scientific process after the event
science.nasa.gov...
It really is an incredible experience to see. I`m glad so many of my neighbours got to witness this event.
