Good evening folks.
I just saw a post on Astromart from Mike Hankey of Freeland, Maryland
concerning this fireball. He was shooting exposures of Andromeda and
inadvertently captured the meteor. He was on the evening news, with his
photo. This might be helpful in determining the trajectory, given the
starfield and M31 as orientation. Andromeda must have been quite low at that
hour. I'm surprised he was imaging it, but I'm glad he was!
I'll attach the text of his post. He can be contacted through his blog. Good
luck guys!

I took a picture of a big meteor over baltimore using my 90mm refractor and
DSLR camera.
This picture got me on TV!

I want to try to figure out the trajectory of the meteor based on the
picture I took, but i'm not sure how to do this or where to start.
I'm tracking this story on my blog
http://www.mikesastrophotos.com
Any help or tips with trying to determine the trajectory are greatly
appreciated.
