On Wednesday night, people from all over the Southwest saw a mysterious light. According to a NASA scientist, it was likely a fireball from an asteroid.

The fair is known as the largest celebration of its kind in the U.S.
This year, in addition to the parachuters, it featured a concert by “American Idol’s†David Archuleta — and even more lights in the sky — in the form of fireworks.
