The Norwegian Meteor Network has received a report of a fireball
observed 2014-04-18 22:15UTC at 70.08482N 29.71802E towards SSW.  That
would place it near the Russian/Norwegian or Russian/Finnish border.
Not over the sea.

It was reported to illuminate the sky, but not the terrain.  So
probably up to full moon luminocity.

Since the time agrees by 1 minute (assuming the camera was set to
local Murmansk time), it's very likely the same fireball.

Are there other sightings or any information about the video?
