According to the belief of Russian experts, the meteor crashed to the ground outside their territory instead of disintegrating in the air.
"The lights came from all around us, like a massive explosion that lasted for some five, six seconds," revealed Atle Staalesen, a spectator who saw this amazing view in the north of Inari on Thursday evening.

The light was suspected to be an outcome of a meteorite by Morten Bilet, who is from the Norwegian Meteor Network.
"There's no doubt it is a large stone – a meteorite heading towards the mountain. They shine so brightly that they are called fireballs, and it explodes several times on its way down," Bilet stated as reported by Daily Mail.
