Daytime Fireballs

Astronomy: APOD: A Daytime Fireball Over South Wales. Great picture
of a fireball disintegrating in the daytime sky.

I saw a similar daytime fireball streak through the sky when I was in Fraser Island in Australia last year; a little bit smaller than this one, mind you ;) Unfortunately, I didn’t get a picture in time. Very cool though!

Amazing photo of London by night

Wow. An incredible shot up at Astronomy Pic of the Day, taken by an unnamed astronaut on-board the ISS with a digital camera. Hyde Park, Regent’s Park, and the M25 are all very clearly visible.

So I guess that means the Great Wall is no longer the only man-made structure visible from space then ;)
