A Daytime Fireball in 1944
NASA APOD · Norman Appleton
COSMIC MESSAGE
In December 1944, Norman Appleton witnessed a meteor so bright it streaked across the daytime sky. Years later, as an aviation artist, he painted this vivid memory of the event. Such daytime fireballs are rare but spectacular, leaving a lasting impression on those who see them.
