A "Fireball" is a bright, glowing object that appears in the sky, often resembling a meteor. It is typically caused by a meteoroid entering the Earth's atmosphere at high speed, where it burns up due to friction with the air. Fireballs can be larger and brighter than regular meteors, sometimes producing a visible trail and even creating a sonic boom. In addition to natural occurrences, the term "Fireball" can also refer to certain types of fireworks or special effects used in movies. These effects create a dramatic burst of flames and light, enhancing visual storytelling. Fireballs are often associated with explosions and action scenes in films.
