Hi neighbours,

Did you hear a "sonic boom" and see an object flying across the Canterbury sky? Many residents witnessed a suspected meteor this week.

The burning rock was at least the size of a fist – much larger than what astronomers usually see above New Zealand. Usually the objects are about the size of a grain of sand.

The arrival of a meteor can be impressive, with even something pebble-sized lighting up in the sky, Canterbury Astronomical Society president Euan Mason says.

So what did you think of the meteor? Where were you when you saw it? And do you see them often from your place? Let us know in the replies!

My lovely cousin and her 3 beautiful kids (aged 5,3 &2) have recently moved to Christchurch from Taupo and are looking for a rental home so she can get her eldest daughter back into school ASAP. As the little ones prefer being together in one room she is looking for a 2-3brm home. Fully fenced is a must, as is heating (warm/dry) and a bath. Long term lease preferred. She registered with local real estate agents today but I said I’d see if any ‘neighbours’ might know if anything properties available now/coming up. Thanks in advance! Cheers Jeanine
