  • When: August and September
  • Where: All over Texas
  • What: Fireball reports of all kinds, mass sighting
On September 5th, many Americans got a front row seat to a pretty amazing show: a meteor brighter than the moon, flying across the sky at a whopping 56,000 miles per hour.

Luckily, NASA captured it all on camera:

What's even more astonishing is this is the latest in a long line of shooting stars to glimmer over the heads of Texans during this past month, alone. For starters, there was the annual Perseid Meteor Shower that started showing up around August 10th, and didn't let up... well... ever? That's certainly what it feels like... case in point:

Perseid Meteor Over Houston: Aug 10th

Dallas Meteor: Sep 1st

Here at the left is a Houston area, Texan's perspective of the Perseids, which showed up a day earlier than expected, a tad unsettling - has something gone awry in the universe, is there something tugging at all of us a little harder than before?

Here's the video description:

Next up is video of a supposed "UFO" over Dallas weeks later":
But that's hardly the tip of it, folks. The entire month of August, as well as these first few weeks of September have been drenched with UFO reports.

August 21st, for example, was a goldmine for fireball sightings, according to my favorite asteroid watch site AMSMeteors.org:

A little lost? Don't blame you. Here's a recap:

The Play by Play
August 7th: Bright star/meteor in Cypress
August 10th - 12th: Perseid Meteor Shower event, sightings all over
August 20th: Green streak over Houston
August 21st: Meteor reported across state lines
August 23rd: Texas gets small glimpse of mass meteor sighting in mostly Oklahoma and Arkansas

August 25th: Fireball spotted all the way from San Antonio to Lubbock
August 27th: "Silent" fireballs reported over Garland
September 1st: Unverified video of Dallas "UFO" surfaces, looks like meteor
September 5th: NASA captures record-breaking meteor sighting on camera

Were you lucky enough to witness one of these fireballs? Have you seen one I don't know about? Either way, would love to hear from you.
