Congrats, Martin, for being in the right place at the right time! Must have
been a gorgeous sighting, just like winning the lottery. As Rob already pointed
out, seeing this going west it unlikely will or could have been a decaying
satellite, as almost all of those are heading eastwards somehow,
Dirk,
It may be a recycled video but looks the real deal to me compared to
what I saw. Plenty of other ones are definitely recycled but I think

Thankyou Alex, I do feel blessed to have seen it from start to finish
and from such a clear viewpoint as where I was, simply stunning :-)
Would be even better to have a rock in the collection from an event

Hello Greg and all!
Part of this is why hunters need, not only the immediate support from
NASA, but also the support of the institutions that hunters have
supported so generously. Obviously, if the media is to blame for
this, they are very much part of this. All of the PR generated,

There are a several amazing videos of this online.

It would help to know the orientation of his camera. He mentions that
the camera points nearly to zenith, with a slight tilt westward
toward Belfast, but he doesn't mention which direction down points
to (north, south, east, west, etc.)
In any case, the very shallow entry angle of the bolide
Hi Jim and All,
Remember Old Woman? Well, Jim, The main mass is sitting on display in the
Bureau of Land Management's administrative building lobby in Barstow,
California and the intrepid hunters who found it are off somewhere sucking eggs.
I'm going to make a prediction, and back my mouth up
What a beauty! Thanks, Graham.

sightings map. There are at least 3-4 witnesses from Holland, 1 from the Sea

Also -- the video from Dalbeattie, UK, showing the bolide fairly low
on the horizon moving left to right and nearly parallel to the horizon
confirms the shallow entry angle, the east-to-west motion, and suggests
that the ground track was much closer to Manchester Liverpool than it

I went back to Graham's original post and see that the fireball was also
travelling right-to-left as seen from Preston, UK:
Reports of massive fireball travelling across the UK just over 1 hour ago...
Very much like Peekskillvideo here...lots of other pictures coming in...
Rob,
I am by no means an experienced observer but I have been back today to
where I watched the fireball and can confirm the following:
Location - (not got GPS co ordinates but exact address I was at was
122 Broadway, Chadderton, Oldham, Lancashire, UK
Start point - 25 degrees elevation, 90
What good fortune...to see that live, Martin :)
