Very bright fireball over Izmir, sonic boom reported, Turkey

August 2, 2021 Leave a Comment

A very bright green fireball illuminated the night sky over the city of Izmir, Turkey around 23:00 UTC on July 30, 2021 (02:00 LT, July 31).

The visual part of the event lasted several seconds before the object disintegrated. Several residents reported a sonic boom.

According to Dr. Hassan Ali Dar, deputy director of the Astronomical Observatory of Aegean University, the object was a part of the Perseid meteor shower.

Perseids are active each year from July 17 to August 24, with a peak around August 12.

In 2021, the shower will peak close to the new moon, so moonlight will present minimal interference.

Grand Solar Minimum

A period during which solar activity diminishes, resulting in drastic climatic and geophysical changes to our planet. These include increased galactic cosmic rays (GCRs), seismic activity, and volcanism; the latter often results in a global reduction in temperatures.
