Meteorites are solid debris, formed from an object such as a comet or an asteroid that originates in outer space and survives passage through the atmosphere to reach the surface of a planet or moon… when it enters the atmosphere it generates energy and forms a meteor, or a fireball.
This fireball was recorded at 7.40pm on March 5
And this amazing imagery was captured
It appeared in the sky on Tuesday and experts believe it landed in the Abu Dhabi desert, south of Al Wathba
