The secret of the mysterious light beam in the sky of Turkey.. video

The British newspaper, "Mirror", revealed the secret of the mysterious light beam in the sky of Turkey, which occurred recently in the city of Izmir and sparked speculation that a satellite or a strange object had crashed, but a physicist said that the explosion was caused by the burning of a meteorite.

Circulating videos showed a strange object burning in the sky at night and causing the sound of a huge explosion that shocked many people who saw it in the coastal city of Izmir at two in the morning.

In some clips, the green object disappeared behind the hills, but other clips showed a bright glow before it appeared as if the meteor was crashing to the ground.

The newspaper "The Sun" quoted astrophysics professor, Dr. Hassan Ali Dal, as saying that despite the suggestions made by some that the flash was caused by the crash of a spacecraft or a missile, this phenomenon, which is called "Meteor" or "Fireball", occurs when A meteorite begins to burn up in the upper atmosphere.

Space rocks often disintegrate before they reach Earth, but if they collide with Earth, they are classified as meteorites, and sometimes the disintegration process can look like an explosion.

The physics professor added: "Meteorites usually burn in the upper atmosphere, and they should be considered a more specific version of the phenomenon known to people as a meteor."

About 90% of meteors contain no metals, but some are made entirely or partially of iron and nickel.

The sighting of the meteor burning came as Turkey's region is grappling with more than 100 violent forest fires.
