Doorbell Camera Captures Meteor Crash in Texas

Doorbell cameras have emerged as one of the most useful things in today’s time, recording some interesting activities and sometimes also providing evidence of any accident or major happening in one’s neighbourhood. A doorbell camera in the US state of Texas has managed to capture a meteor crash right from the exact moment, with a loud sound heard from the neighbourhood as the meteor hit the ground, as later confirmed by NASA. The video footage of the doorbell camera opens by showing an empty yard with no one around except for a few birds, followed by a loud explosion. The American space organisation confirmed that a meteor weighing roughly 1,000 pounds (454 kg) meteor crashed near McAllen, Texas on 15 February 2023 after turning into an atmospheric fireball. This is not the first time when a doorbell camera has recorded such an astronomical phenomenon, with similar instances also reported in January this year.
