Residents in Perth, Western Australia, reported seeing a bright light streak across the night sky on August 28.
Perth Observatory said they’d had multiple reports of a large meteor flying over Perth. A manager at Perth’s Gravity Discovery Centre said the light had all the tell-tale signs of a decent-sized meteor, according to local news.
People in York reported hearing a loud boom which shook their houses and windows, according to ABC. Scientists at Curtin University were investigating where the meteor was likely to have hit the ground.
