The bright green object was spotted blazing through the skies over Moscow on the evening of October 27. Some Muscovites believed President Putin was testing a 9M730 Burevestnik nuclear-powered cruise missile. But that wasn\u2019t the case. <\/p>\n

According to the Metro<\/a>, head of the Space Research Institute of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Sergey Bogachev, says that \u201cfireballs\u201d can be spotted on a regular basis \u2014 if you know where to look. <\/p>\n

Geologist Sergio Almaz\u00e1n shared a video of the same bright meteor, also known as a bolide, rocketing across the rooftops of Moscow. <\/p>\n

Gulf News reports<\/a> that the green hue of the meteor shows that nickel is present in the composition. A similar green fireball was captured on camera in Turkey<\/a> in 2023. <\/p>\n

When a meteoroid, which is a chunk of rock or metal from space, enters Earth\u2019s atmosphere, it\u2019s moving incredibly fast \u2014 usually between 11 and 72 kilometers per second. At those speeds, the air in front of it doesn\u2019t have time to move out of the way. Instead, it gets compressed. That compression heats the air to extreme temperatures \u2014 thousands of degrees Celsius \u2014 which in turn heats and vaporizes the outer layers of the meteoroid. The glowing streak is the superheated air and vaporized material around it, emitting light.<\/p>\n

A similar fireball was spotted in Japan<\/a> a few months ago. <\/p>\n
