Rob is right! the time-of-day reported by the charting program I used is wrong. the altitude of the streaks is indeed about 27 deg. I haven't checked carefully yet, but that means the trajectory as seen from Freeland, MD, from was more toward NE than ENE (Rob: how did you deduce the reverse of that, NE to SW? seems inconsistent with the York video.) BTW, I'm a "he." ;-) clear skies, Kelly **************** J.
