See it on NASA's siteMeteors are usually too far away to be heard, but they create an ionization trail that can reflect radio signals. If the conditions are right, you can hear a distant radio station reflected off a meteor trail. This video captured the sounds of distant radio transmitters reflecting off large meteor trails. At the same time, bright streaks of light were seen in the sky.
