Splat! A meteorite impact recorded by a doorbell camera gave scientists a rare view of a space rock at the moment it hit Earth. The sound is like shattering glass.

Home security-camera footage shows a puff of smoke, with the sound of an explosion included, as the space rock lands in Canada. A geologist said it was a rare recording.

The space rock—recorded with visuals and sound—landed where the homeowner had been standing just minutes earlier

A meteorite crash-landed on his home’s walkway. Hoping to confirm what he saw on his camera, Velaidum sent his home security video and pictures to Chris Herd, an expert in meteorites at the University of Alberta. Herd confirmed that it was indeed a meteorite and that it was a history-making moment.

Joe Velaidum's home security camera captured the instant a meteorite smashed against his home's brick walkway. The video is thought to be the first recorded sound of a meteorite's direct impact.

This is the first time the sound of a meteorite hitting Earth has been recorded, the University of Alberta said.

The meteorite, collected by an Antarctic research expedition in 2000, will be shown to the public for the first time at the expo.

The researcher says the meteorite likely broke off from an asteroid between Mars and Jupiter. We often see them speed across our. Skies, but in Canada, only about 70 meteorites have been recovered.

Doorbell cameras aren’t just for busting home invaders and porch pirates. A Ring camera captured the sound of a meteorite crash-landing near a house in Prince Edward Island, Canada, marking the first time this interstellar noise had been recorded alongside video footage.
