Hallo zusammen,
Vielleicht habe ich heute Abend einen möglichen Feuerball gesehen und bin gespannt, ob ihn noch jemand gesehen hat.
Standort: Rheinland-Pfalz (Deutschland)
Zeit: ca. 19:00 Uhr Ortszeit
Ich sah ein leuchtend rot/orange brennendes Objekt mit Funken, die über den Himmel zogen. Es war etwa 7–10 Sekunden lang sichtbar und erschien in einer Richtung von etwa 227° (Südwesten) von meiner Position aus. Nachdem es verschwunden war, hörte ich kurze Zeit später ein lautes, dumpfes Knallen.
Hat sonst noch jemand in RLP, NRW, Hessen oder den umliegenden Regionen zu dieser Zeit etwas Ähnliches gesehen? Ich versuche herauszufinden, ob es ein Meteor/Feuerball oder etwas anderes gewesen sein könnte.
Alle Informationen oder zusätzlichen Sichtungen wären wirklich interessant!

I saw it from Bavaria, but no idea what it was
People have seen at 18:56 in france, in strasbourg i think ? so you’re not alone.
r/Karlsruhe has some sightings

I’ve seen a post in our local Facebook group, I live like 45 mins by car from Wiesbaden. They think it was a meteorite.
Also seen from Utrecht in the Netherlands towards the south/south-east
A buddy of mine an me have seen it, too. Around 1900 in Trier in RLP. Bright and a very loud boom
Saw it at 18:55 near Münster, NRW. Really bright and seemed to explode but made no sound. Direction was 195° moving from west to east at a low angle.
I’ve noticed it driving home in Rhineland-Palatinate. I didn’t see it directly but i saw the environment light up for like 2 flashes and wondered what it was.
Wow, the northern hemisphere has way more fun with things like this.
Yes, I saw it from Duisburg, looking south-east at 18:56 – 18:57, while it was travelling roughly north. It was quite bright, but already falling apart.
We saw it and my girlfriend took a picture of leftovers? glowing at the sky after the Event. Still dont know what it was. The direction you describe seems to be the same
Also seen all over Netherlands tonight- we saw it just outside Amsterdam streaking through the sky. No boom though
Exactly 18h55, East of France, Fragments were breaking off from the tail of the object
I saw something like you described in Bingen, directly west. Saw a small bright light moving fast and disintegating into sparks for a few seconds. Sometime around 18:55-18:58.
Yes here in cologne. Thought it was an airplane at first
Saw it around the same time in Hesse!
It was spotted near Eindhoven and Helmond (NL) too.
I have seen it from the mid east of France (close to Lons-le-Saunier) looking North. It was flying from west to east.
I saw it in Bonn and can confirm your observation
*really bright, red/orange, some really bright sparks in the end
*duration about 7-10sec
*didn’t hear anything
Yes it was seen by people all over Saarland, Luxemburg and RLP, NRW and even the Netherlands apparently
Nothing reported here yet https://fireball.imo.net/members/imo_view/browse_reports
Saw it too from south germany.
Here is a vid of someone, looks like what i have seen

came here to report the same thing, saw it from NRW/Essen from my balcony around the same time!! It appeared as this super bright glowing thing and then flew across the sky for a few seconds, with a green/orange streak and broke apart a little. prettyyy sure it was a fireball since it was so bright.
yep saw it too from germany around 19:00 I think….didn’t hear any sound though…initially thought if it’s something to do with middle east…..glad that it was just a meteorite …

Funny we had one over canada a day ago.. also called a meteorite
The Frankfurt sub, r/Frankfurt, is full of posts about it. So…yeah, Hesse checking in 🙂
We were in between Tournai and Mons Belgium and saw it heading North
A meteorite or a satellite?
