Maria,

Thank you for your comment. A meteorite is a meteor that has landed on Earth. You may have seen a fireball or bolide.

Lo siento por mi mal español, un meteorito es un meteoro que golpea la Tierra, una “estrella” de meteoros y son la misma cosa.

English only, my Spanish is really bad.

Goodmorning everybody,
Yesterday at night around 01:50 I saw a great light in the sky falling drawing a line lightness and …. I apologize to you for my wrong encglish, I will describe what I saw in spanish language: era una luz muy intensa, no la de una simple estrella fugaz, no! era increible , “amazing”! hubiera querido ir hacia donde se dirigia… La aviste hacia el sur.
It was wonderfull, fantastic, incredible. I’ve never seen anything like this. Every year in august I use to see the falling stars here in Italy. I swear what I saw yesterday wasn’t a falling star.
Does it possible it was a meteorite?

Ron,

Look east to the left of Orion and find Gemini. The moon will be really bright there however, so I suggest looking to a dark spot in the sky as most meteors can be seen just about anywhere in the sky. The radiant Gemini is just where the backward path of a meteor’s trail would appear to originate from.

Let me know if this helps and keep your head up!
