Meteorite may have landed in Mayo

The search is on in the west for a meteorite which may have landed in Mayo.

Astronomy Ireland has launched an appeal for help in locating a meteorite that fell on Ireland. Astronomy Ireland received reports from around the country of a fireball seen blazing across the sky last week. It is thought pieces of the meteorite may have survived the fall to the ground and landed in the west.

In order to get a more accurate location, Astronomy Ireland is now appealing for eyewitness reports and CCTV images from the region that may provide further clues. www.astronomy.ie
