Description

This appears to be a meteor obliquely entering the mesosphere, where it vaporises and creates a plume of material that radiates out in a spiral-shaped shock wave.

I'd like to attribute these images to Andre Philips, who captured this amazing sequence on his all-night camera in Coonabarabran, NSW.
