Excellent video!

With ground reference in all three videos, has anyone calculated the 
trajectory where an area could be searched for possible meteorites?


Cheers,
Pete

Hello list members,

A great fireball was witnessed by numerous people in Japan on the night of
August 9, 23:28:41 JST (=14:28:41 UT). Saturated images, due to its strong
luminosity, were recorded by several CCD cameras in the Fireball Network in
Japan, and now their data are processed. It maybe a member of the
Capricornid meteor shower with the geocentric velocity of around 20 km/sec.
If so, it is no meteorite dropping fireball.
