Anybody else see the shooting star around 10mins ago? Big bright thing, with a red and blue flamed tail.
Noticed it north going east at a very fast rate, looked to be getting closer to earth too.

I know it's hardly clarification but a few people have said they saw a meteor flying over Britain on Twitter .

 

[Draeger]

Maybe it's Craig Whyte flying back from Monaco?.

 

[ash_scotland88]

also been seen as far afield as Aberdeen and London.
well not a vivid red an blue,like colouring a flame with chemicals, then the centre of the tail was bright white. There was also a golden ring around the object with the centre again bright white.

Saw a dodgy photo someone just posted on Facebook, figured I'd check with OcUK to clear things up.
Guess it must have happened...

I honestly thought i was going mad, but i saw one too but it was heading south i think (i was heading north on A19 and it was coming towards me) it had a bright blue tail and was very close.
