A stunning image of a Leonid meteor exploding in Earth's atmosphere. Captured by the ROTSE telescope, the image shows the bright meteor disintegrating, leaving a visible cloud that slowly dissipates. The meteor's fiery trail is reminiscent of a butterfly's wings. A smaller meteor is also visible in the frame.
