Is this ANOTHER meteorite falling over Donegal?

What could it be? A mysterious object falling from the sky was caught on camera this morning outside Letterkenny.

The object was spotted by a Donegal Daily reader, who had initially thought it was a plane before seeing it plummet straight to the ground. They were able to take a few quick snaps of the object as it shot across the morning sky.

The photo was taken on the Port Road outside Letterkenny town, and it looks as though the object would fall to the west of the county.

Just last month, a widespread search kicked off for another meteorite that was believed to have landed in Donegal. It was speculated that the remnants of the rock may be worth up to €500 per gramme.
