Residents of the American city of West Palm Beach in Florida noticed a large meteor in the sky. It could be a piece of an asteroid that entered the Earth's atmosphere.
CBS News reporter Jay O'Brien showed a video of a flash in the sky.
Journalists write that such an outbreak could have appeared from a piece of asteroid 2021 GW4 entering the Earth's atmosphere. He was supposed to pass the planet on the night of Tuesday, April 13th. Scientists said that the asteroid was about 4 meters long, and did not pose a danger to the planet.
Recall that scientists have recently excluded the famous Apophis from the list of potentially dangerous asteroids. It should not collide with Earth in 2068 and in the next 100 years.
