In a rare incident, a Canadian couple narrowly escaped a meteorite strike that was captured on their doorbell camera in July 2024. The space rock, named the Charlottetown meteorite, made history as the first to be filmed with sound.

Watch: Rare meteorite strike caught on camera

In a rare incident, a Canadian couple narrowly escaped a meteorite strike that was captured on their doorbell camera in July 2024. The space rock, named the Charlottetown meteorite, made history as the first to be filmed with sound.

A meteorite crash captured on a doorbell camera in Canada narrowly missed a couple, striking just outside their home moments after they left for a walk.&nbsp;
The incident, which occurred last July, saw the rock land with a loud explosion, sending a cloud of grey dust into the air.
Joe Velaidum and his wife, Laura Kelly, returned home after walking their dogs and noticed the sidewalk covered in debris shaped like a star. They reviewed the footage from their doorbell camera, revealing the meteorite's impact.

Joe reflected on the close call, saying, "I never stop on that spot - ever, and looking back on it now, we noticed, because of the video, if I had stayed on that very spot for just two minutes longer, I absolutely would have been struck and probably killed by this meteor."
The meteorite, later confirmed to be from space, was named "Charlottetown" after the Canadian city in Prince Edward Island where it struck. It was included in the Meteoritical Society's database, and experts were amazed by the rare video footage, which includes sound.&nbsp;
Chris Herd, a professor at the University of Alberta, said, "To the best of my knowledge, it's the first time that a meteorite hitting the surface of the Earth has been recorded on video with sound."
While 69 meteorites have been discovered and registered across Canada, the Charlottetown meteorite is special due to the video footage that accompanied it. Although meteorite strikes have been captured on camera before, this instance stands out because it was filmed at close range and included sound.
Meteorites, which burn up upon entering Earth's atmosphere or land in remote areas, rarely make an impact in populated places. Only a few people have witnessed one firsthand, making this footage particularly significant. According to NASA, about 43 tonnes of meteorite debris hit Earth every day, though most fall into oceans.
The Charlottetown meteorite's close-range, sound-included video is a first, making this discovery even more remarkable.

A meteor shaped star dominated the skies of Scotland and Northern Ireland on Wednesday as locals gazed at the spectacular view.
The fireball crossed the night sky of the said regions with UK's Meteor Network receiving hindreds of reports of a fireball on Wednesday night.
In a now viral video, the fireball can be seen swifting over buildings leaving the passersby stunned as they try to make out of its origin.
A scientist at the Glasgow Scientists Centre have referred to the imagery as "brilliant fireball" outlinung that the sighting was unusual in its duration
UK daily 'The Guardian' reported that country's Meteor Network was trying to calculate the fireball's trajectory from the hundreds of reports it received from Scotland and Northern Ireland.
The network was also “investigating to ascertain what the object was, meteor or space debris”, the report added

Dazzling visuals of what appears to be a meteor shower were captured by residents in central India.&nbsp;Blazing streaks of lights were captured on camera by people in many parts of Madhya Pradesh and Maharashtra.&nbsp;The lights were sighted in Maharashtra's Nagpur, and Jhabua and Barwani in Madhya Pradesh, as per reports.
A scientist claimed&nbsp;on Twitter&nbsp;that it was actually a Chinese rocket burning up on re-entry into Earth.
Meteors are rocks from outer space which enter the Earth's atmosphere at very high speeds.&nbsp;In the process, they heat up and turn into fireballs or 'shooting stars'.They usually vaporise in the short journey.
According to American space agency NASA, the Lyrids meteor showers are common in April.&nbsp;The Lyrids are one of the oldest known meteor showers, having been observed for 2,700 years.

An "unusually large meteor" briefly lit up southern Norway skies on Sunday, creating a spectacular sound and light display as it rumbled across.
The meteor travelled at 15-20 km per second and lit up the night sky for about five to six seconds, say experts, adding that a bit of it may have hit Earth, possibly not far from the capital, Oslo. Analysis of the meteor suggests it could have weighed at least 10kgs. There were no immediate reports of injuries or damage.
Such meteor strikes are rare, but one did cause widespread damage and injure at least 1,600 people when it crashed down in Russia's Ural Mountains in 2013.
