Meeting With a Meteor Aboard the Cambrian
The Cambrian, a 6000 ton cargo ship on the London to North Atlantic run, recounts a dramatic night on August 16 1907 when a meteor or fireball streaked toward the vessel. The blazing object filled the sky and sea with light, hovered over the deck, and finally struck the water near the foredeck, narrowly missing the ship and causing extensive noise and fear before continuing onward.
