Our Newark, NJ camera caught this strange object appearing to crash down onto Hudson County moving from south to north at
7:18AM. Did anyone see else this? The camera is facing EAST off of Bridge Street in Newark The skyline in the background is NYC and the highway bridge in the distance is the NJ Turnpike near Exit 15E. Something may have "fell" over the Meadowlands, near the Portal Bridge/ Hackensack River, Secaucus, or even JerseyCity/Hoboken... but what is it?
I don't think it’s a meteor, but could it be one? A fireball? spacejunk? aliens?! We need better footage! Did anyone in the area see something?
