YnetNews: “Meteorites are never on fire and they don’t generate smoke,” said Darryl Pitt, founder of the Macovich Collection of Meteorites, one of the largest of its kind. “Even though they are referred to as ‘fireballs,’ they are not balls of fire; what we see in the night sky is merely the luminescence of super-heated gases.”
Pitt viewed video of the unidentified object and said he is 100% sure it is not a meteorite.
“Meteorites are not remotely hot enough to ignite a fire or be on fire. This is the stuff of movies and vivid imaginations.”
