[meteorite-list] Fireball over Tucson 2-16-2010 7:28pm

[Fries, Marc D (3225)]

First off, I¹m back!  We had a very successful ANSMET season this year and
collected 1010 meteorites (with probably a few terrestrials in there).  The
weather was spectacular and allowed us to put about 750 miles on our
snowmobiles while searching.

As for this meteor ­ I¹ve pulled the radar data but I¹m going to need a
better positional fix.  That radar outside of Tucson is notoriously ³noisy²
for some reason.  I¹ll work on this further to see if something obvious pops
up in the meanwhile.

Cheers,
Marc Fries
