Meteor Boston: Another meteorite over Boston and people are filming it instead of calling 911 – let’s use some common sense, not just our phones.

Meteor Boston: Another meteorite over Boston and people are filming it instead of calling 911 – let’s use some common sense, not just our phones.

Saw the news about that fireball over Cambridge last night. It’s a meteorite from Boston’s sky, and what do we get? People posting shaky videos on Facebook instead of doing anything useful. Let’s be real, common sense says if a flaming rock is heading your way, you duck, you don’t record it for your Instagram story. These people would film their own house burning down. So a meteor Boston flew over, and now everyone’s an amateur astronomer. Next time, put the phone down and look up. We live in a world of cameras, but zero common sense.
