People all across the metro Atlanta area reported seeing a large fireball streak through the sky Monday afternoon over Snellville and Winder.
Several WSB-TV viewers submitted images and video to Severe Weather Team 2 Meteorologist Glenn Burns of the object, which was spotted around 3:45 p.m.

''Okay...so we have a mystery on our hands. I know some people who know some people..we will find out something soon. I checked our radar data...nothing visible on radar. We know there was something in the sky. It was not a meteor. We might have something tomorrow after we have a chance to check some sources.'' (Posted by Glenn Burns on Monday, January 11, 2016)

Glenn spoke to officials at the Tellus Science Museum in Cartersville, who say they believe the mysterious fireball is space debris, but so far, no one has officially determined what it was.

''After doing some research today, folks at Tellus believe it might have been space debris. Others say moving too slowly for space debris.''(Posted Glenn Burns on Tuesday, January 12, 2016)
