A green fireball meteor seen over the UK has been captured on camera by an observatory in Devon.
The "bolide" meteor was seen in the West Country, Wales and the West Midlands at 03:04 BST.
The fireball is reported to have been green in colour and bright enough to cast shadows.
It was captured by two special meteor cameras at the Norman Lockyer Observatory at Sidmouth in Devon.
Elsewhere, a West Midlands Police traffic officer saw the fireball while travelling on the M42. It was filmed by the car's on-board CCTV.
An eyewitness in Cardiff described the meteor as "spectacular".
It is reported to have broken into several pieces as it entered the Earth's atmosphere.
