Unique footage was captured by flight attendant Alexandra Spasskaya, who was working on a flight from Ulyanovsk to Moscow. At an altitude of 10,000 meters, the flight attendant filmed the moment a meteorite was falling, flying over Moscow on October 27.
The flight attendant was able to capture how the space object crumbles and burns up in the atmosphere, illuminating the sky with green fiery furrows.
Money comes and goes, but I will never again be the 22-year-old me watching a meteorite from an airplane window.
Presumably, the space object has a terrestrial history of origin, as indicated by the low speed of fall and the green glow, due to the presence of nickel. This element is found both in meteorites and in artificially created products of the space industry.
Earlier www1.ru wrote that a celestial body resembling a meteorite excited residents of Moscow and the Moscow region.
