Meteorite lights up Bucharest night

A disintegrating meteorite illuminated the sky over Bucharest, Romania, giving Romanians an impromptu light show. Media reports said the event took place at 3:05 am local time. Several security cameras -- including ones at Budapest airports -- captured the sight of the space rock lighting up the area.

Locals were shocked to see the bright light during total darkness; however, it seems that no one was hurt. The Romanian Space Agency (Rosa) reports that there was no damage to buildings since the meteorite burned in the atmosphere.
