Greig is a meteor researcher who operates a network of meteor cameras across New Zealand, contributing to the understanding of meteor frequency and behavior. He recently shared insights about the occurrence of fireball meteors, indicating that while meteors are common, bright fireballs are less frequent, with his network detecting thousands of meteor events each month. Greig actively encourages the public to report sightings of fireball meteors to aid in the recovery of potential meteorites.
