The Great Meteor Procession of 1913
This picture depicts the event that happened on Febuary 9th 1913. A procession of Meteors seen easily in the Toronto Canada area streaked along the sky, only visible to about 1,000 people (who have reported the sighting). It is believed that this was caused by a large meteor which grazed the Earth's atmosphere and broke up. The pieces then next encountered Earth, and burned up in the atmosphere on their way down to their believed landing sight in the Atlantic Ocean.
