The UK branch of the Global Fireball Observatory. Run by @imperialcollege @UofGGES and @OpenUniversity in collaboration with @FireballsSky to find meteorites

If you would like to #volunteer to be a citizen scientist for the UKFN. As well as following us on here, you can subscribe to our mailing list where we will send out the call to arms for any #meteorite recovery expedition @UofGlasgow @imperialcollege https://t.co/D4cW6H5cdz

We caught the #fireball that flew over #scotland last night on one of our recently installed new cameras. @UK_Fireball

☄️🎆Incoming! The ninth ever immininent impactor has been discovered by the Catalina Sky Survey this morning. There will be a harmless, but likely spectacular fireball in about 8 hours, caused by a small ~1 metre diameter object entering Earth's atmosphere near the Philippines.

Can someone please go find this new #UK #meteorite for us please! We'd be much obliged! @UK_Fireball @FireballsUK

It's 3-years since the UK received a visitor from the asteroid belt! #SpaceRocks #WinchcombeMeteorite

Here's the full video of the asteroid #Sar2736, a ~1 m object that broke up some 50 m west of #Belin, #Germany, and probably dropped some meteorites on the ground. Video credit: https://t.co/72o6ZzPNz8

Please get in touch if you find anything!

#Sar2736 - caught on camera!

[Richard Moissl @Richard_M_F]

☄️💥Incoming! The next immininent impactor discovered by @sarneczky will enter the atmosphere harmlessly but with a nice bright fireball within the next half hour.

Lots of nice videos out there & here it is caught on a @SCAMP_Meteors camera in N. Ireland @UK_Fireball

Where did the #Winchcombe meteorite come from? And how did it end up crash landing on a driveway?

An entire winter's crop of bright meteors can now be harvested from the comfort of the fireside, thanks to low-light meteor cameras and the work of @meteordoc @UKMeteorNetwork @FireballsUK and friends. Can you spot the imposters?

[Denis Vida @meteordoc]

Contributing networks and organizations, @UK_Fireball , @FireballsUK , @UKMeteorNetwork , @nemetodemeteor , @SCAMP_Meteors , and the #globalmeteornetwork quickly coordinated and shared data, making such accurate measurements possible.
