Intro

This fireball appeared on the Desert Fireball Network network on May 10, 2025 at 21:57:30 (UTC).

This corresponds to May 11, 2025 just before 6am AWST.

This event has also been observed by many people in the public, from the WA coast including Perth, all the way out to Kalgoorlie (ABC article, 9 news video compilation).

We believe that there should be a strewn field of meteorite fragments on the ground. We have not attempted to search for them yet. The strewn field is quite long, owing to the shallow entry slope of the fireball.
