The UFO Phenomenon

Fireball 'UFO' filmed over California

Ken Roberts had been driving home when he witnessed something unusual shooting across the sky.
Turning his camera skywards, Roberts recorded footage of a bright fiery object careening down from the heavens, a spectacle that would normally be interpreted as a meteor or a piece of space debris burning up in the planet's atmosphere.

What makes this particular video unique however is the fact that a few seconds in to the recording a small object appears to break away from the fireball and fly back in to the sky instead of falling to the ground as would be expected if it were a piece of debris.
"Couldn't have been a plane cause there was no noise," he said. "And I never heard a crash."

The video has been the subject of considerable controversy and debate since appearing online and has so far been viewed more than 1.4 million times on YouTube.
