A man from Prince Edward Island returned home from walking his dogs to find a pile of dust-like debrison the walkway to his front door, which ended up being caused by a meteorite — and his Ring camera captured it hitting earth in a historic first.

A meteorite crash-landed on his home’s walkway. Hoping to confirm what he saw on his camera, Velaidum sent his home security video and pictures to Chris Herd, an expert in meteorites at the University of Alberta. Herd confirmed that it was indeed a meteorite and that it was a history-making moment.

A home security camera captured the rare event. The homeowner narrowly escaped getting hit. “It probably would’ve ripped me in half.”

The meteorite, collected by a Japanese Antarctic research expedition, is a scientifically important material containing minerals that indicate that there was water on Mars in the past, ministry ...

An expert says the meteorite would have been traveling about 124 miles per hour when it smashed into the walkway.

The meteorite, collected by an Antarctic research expedition in 2000, will be shown to the public for the first time at the expo.

This is the first time the sound of a meteorite hitting Earth has been recorded, the University of Alberta said.

Last summer, a couple in Canada returned home from walking their dogs to find a pile of debris outside their home, which turned out to be from a meteorite — and it was all recorded on their security camera.

"No other meteorite fall has been documented like this, complete with sound," says Dr. Chris Herd, a meteorite expert from the University of Alberta.

A plume of dust can be seen from the impact. And there’s a sound, like a cross between ice breaking and glass shattering; the sound of a meteorite hitting an object on the ground. It’s the first time in history such a noise has been recorded.
