© Mirror News, UKFrazzled: A meteor burns up in the Earth's atmosphere.
After travelling millions of miles through the galaxy, a blazing meteor finally went out with a bang above a Welsh town.
The force of the explosion at 11pm last night rattled windows, set off car alarms and woke up children.
One resident described it as "like a bomb going off".
Amateur astronomers had watched its progress as it sped over North West England and North Wales before it blew up over Cwmbran in South Wales.
Homeowner Steve Edwards, 56, said: "There was an enormous boom - It sounded like a bomb going off.
"The force of it shook the windows in my house, woke up my children and caused car alarms to start going off in the streets.
"I'm just glad none of it landed on my roof."
Another witness, Nathan Jones, 34, said: "I've never seen something so amazing in my life.
"It had a heat trail behind, it was orange and white and very bright, and also seemed very close.
"It looked like it was skimming through the atmosphere due to the curved path it was taking."
Comment: Yes, the one in March this year was even more spectacular:
