A meteor was caught on camera hurtling across the sky over Brighton.
Stargazers spotted the meteor at around 1am on Wednesday.
Vicki Harris, who lives in Park Road, Rottingdean, shared her doorbell camera footage of the object on social media.
"I found the meteor yesterday when reviewing my doorbell footage overnight," the artist told The Argus.

"Initially I thought that maybe a fox had set the camera off but when I saw the flash through the sky over our lovely neighbours' house I wondered what it was.
"On replay I was amazed to realise that it was a meteor."
Vicki said she feels "very lucky" to have caught it on camera.
Meteors are objects in space which range in size from dust grains to small asteroids. They enter the atmosphere at high speed and burn up.
Around 50 meteor sightings were recorded in the skies over the UK last year.
