A doorbell camera has captured the remarkable moment a meteorite struck the ground outside a home, scattering dust and producing audible impact sounds—a historic first, according to University of Alberta scientist Chris Herd.

A doorbell camera in Prince Edward Island records the first-ever documented sights and sounds of a meteorite impact, marking a milestone in scientific observation. The meteorite, later named the Charlottetown Meteorite after being identified as an ordinary chondrite,

Throughout history, only a select few people who were in the right place at the right time could say they’ve heard the sound of a meteor hitting Earth. But that group is about to get a whole lot bigger after the phenomena was caught on camera.

Sound and video of a meteorite was caught by a Ring doorbell camera in the Atlantic Canada province of P.E.I. last July. Scientists believe it’s the first footage of its kind.

Home video and audio of a meteorite crashing into the sidewalk outside a Canadian man’s home is believed to be the only recording of its kind.

A man in Prince Edward Island got doubly lucky last July, recording a meteorite's impact on his home security cameras. The space rock also landed in the exact spot he'd been standing minutes earlier.

About two minutes after a P.E.I. man left his home to go for a walk with his wife and their dogs, a space rock hurtling toward Earth crashed onto the path where he had been standing.
