People around Japan have reported seeing what appeared to be a fireball blazing across the night sky.
Videos taken around the country on Wednesday show a ball of light streaking across the sky for several seconds a little before 3 a.m.
Eyewitnesses in Kanagawa Prefecture neighboring Tokyo also reported on social media that they heard a blasting sound.
An astronomy expert in Kanagawa says he believes it was an object falling near the Earth and may have been an asteroid fragment burning up in the atmosphere.
