Social networks went a bit crazy last night shortly after 11pm after a big bang was heard in Cwmbran. I turned on Radio Five Live and heard an expert talk about a small meteor (shooting star) the size of a golf ball shooting over Wales and Shropshire causing a bright flash. The callers didn’t mention the noise, just the light. This story is on Wales Online now and reports:
At around 11.10pm, people across the UK reported seeing a bright light travelling across the skies which allegedly exploded near Cwmbran

Seems to have been an explosion heard in Newport, Cwmbran and Usk. So obviously friends/family must text me asking about it. I’m in Devon.0

Calling it now, alien invasion. Why they would invade the Newport/Cwmbran area is beyond me though.0
