Hi Mike/Shawn/List, Following Shawn's post, I looked at the video and came to the same conclusion -- way too fast to be a space object, and very unlikely to be visible *through* the clouds in any case. Despite that, I ~did~ check Denver and Cheyenne radars to see if anything showed up. Lots of weather/clouds at the time, but no obvious bolides.
Unfortunate, btw, that no one bothered to indicate WHEN the bolide occurred on August 3rd. I had to estimate it based on the game being in the top of the 6th, 2 outs, 2-2 count in a 3-0 game at the time, knowing the game started at 6:40 pm MDT, and that local sunset occurred around 8:17 pm. --Rob -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Michael Farmer Sent: Friday, August 10, 2012 6:43 AM To: Shawn Alan Cc: Meteorite Central Subject: Re: [meteorite-list] 8/3/2012 Fireball seen from Coors FieldColorado During SF Giants Game Wayyyyyy too fast!

Dave Flemming is announcing on Comcast Sports Bay Area channel. Giants won 16-4! This must have been an extremly bright fireball as it is visible from behind cloud cover! > > > http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dx2DThXr0Ig > > Shawn Alan > IMCA 1633 > eBay Store > http://www.ebay.com/sch/ph0t0phl0w/m.html? > http://www.meteoritefalls.com/ ______________________________________________ Visit the Archives at http://www.meteoritecentral.com/mailing-list-archives.html Meteorite-list mailing list [email protected] http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list
