meteor

Those in North America have the best shot at seeing the shower at about 1 a.m. on the East Coast or 10 p.m. on the West Coast.

Dashcam footage and home surveillance video captured the fireball that lit up the night sky on Monday.

The space rock punched through the clouds near Detroit just after 8 p.m. with a boom that shook houses and registered magnitude 2.0 on U.S. Geological Survey instruments.

A police officer on patrol in the pre-dawn hours saw a meteor and managed to record it, which has lit up social media.
