Videos have appeared on Telegram channels showing the fall of an unknown celestial object in the sky over Rivne and Kyiv. What exactly it was - a meteorite, a meteor, or a meteoroid - remains unknown. The video shows a bright object flying through the sky and disappearing over the horizon. But where exactly these cosmic bodies fell remains a mystery. Considering the terms, it is worth noting that each of them has its own characteristics. A meteor is a bright light phenomenon in the atmosphere, a meteorite is a physical object that reaches the Earth's surface, and a meteoroid is a solid body moving through space. A burnt meteorite falls less frequently than meteors appear in the sky. Many interesting discoveries are still taking place in the world of astronomy, such as increasing the capabilities of searching for planets that may support life.
