Hi list, I have been closely following the recent MA meteor sighting. I noticed that the numerous sightings for this particular bolide were seen only over a relatively small area. Does this point to the meteor having a more vertical trajectory in comparison to the atmosphere? In short do localized sightings tend to mean a steeper trajectory?
Along this line of thought, do steeper trajectories mean an increased chance that material reached the ground since atmospheric ablation would occur for a shorter time? Any input would be appreciated - Teddy ______________________________________________ http://www.meteoritecentral.com Meteorite-list mailing list [email protected] http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list
