Joe Velaidum and his partner, Laura Kelly, set out to walk their dog when their doorbell camera captured a meteorite striking their front walkway — where Velaidum had been standing moments before.

Doorbell cameras aren’t just for busting home invaders and porch pirates. A Ring camera captured the sound of a meteorite crash-landing near a house in Prince Edward Island, Canada, marking the first time this interstellar noise had been recorded alongside video footage.

A sharp crash that sounds like glass shattering or ice cracking has been documented as likely the world's first audio recording of a meteorite crash. It came by chance from a doorbell camera, recorded last July near the front steps of a home in the Canadian province of Prince Edward Island.

Splat! A meteorite impact recorded by a doorbell camera gave scientists a rare view of a space rock at the moment it hit Earth. The sound is like shattering glass.

In a remarkable event captured on home security footage, a meteorite crashed onto the driveway of a Canadian couple's home, marking the first time both the visual and audio of such an impact have been recorded.

Home security-camera footage shows a puff of smoke, with the sound of an explosion included, as the space rock lands in Canada. A geologist said it was a rare recording.

The space rock—recorded with visuals and sound—landed where the homeowner had been standing just minutes earlier

Joe Velaidum's home security camera captured the instant a meteorite smashed against his home's brick walkway. The video is thought to be the first recorded sound of a meteorite's direct impact.

A man in Prince Edward Island got doubly lucky last July, recording a meteorite's impact on his home security cameras. The space rock also landed in the exact spot he'd been standing minutes earlier.

A meteorite crash-landed on his home’s walkway. Hoping to confirm what he saw on his camera, Velaidum sent his home security video and pictures to Chris Herd, an expert in meteorites at the University of Alberta. Herd confirmed that it was indeed a meteorite and that it was a history-making moment.

The meteorite, collected by an Antarctic research expedition in 2000, will be shown to the public for the first time at the expo.
