Here the space stone burns up over Sweden

From both Norway and Finland you could see the meteor shining with a bright light over parts of Sweden on Saturday night.

- Most of the reports we have received about this are concentrated around Uppsala, Västmanland, Örebro and the Stockholm area, says Eric Stempels, researcher at the Department of Physics and Astronomy at Uppsala University.

In Larvik, you could see how the space rock traveled through the atmosphere and burned up.

The Norwegian meteor network captured it all in a picture.

- This was a real bastard, no wonder it was seen from Norway, says Eric Stempels.

What happens to the stone?

- Space stones do not strike down as in Hollywood movies.

The most common is that the stone burns up completely before it hits the ground, says Eric Stempels.
