Our mate Josh Sherborne sent us this video he snapped on his dash cam during the bright lights and sonic booms last night! 

People from Auckland to Nelson, and the Coromandel to New Plymouth, and even people in Christchurch and on the West Coast saw/heard it around 10pm last night.

Some people even reported that their doors rattled with the impact! 

It's said to most likely be a chunk of asteroid or a meteoroid bursting through the Earth's atmosphere and burning up.
