There are gigantic full bolts of lightning
extending up to the edge of space (100 km):

But these look like Sprites to me, too.
Right speed, also.
There are Red Sprites, Blue Jets, and "Elves".

Betreff: [meteorite-list] fireball video from space

Von: Mike Hankey<mike.han...@gmail.com>
A friend sent me this video of a fireball video taken from the space
shuttle or the ISS
http://www.mikesastrophotos.com/baltimore-pa-meteor/bolide-meteor-video-from
-space/
I'm not sure if this has been sent out to the list before.
What do you think? Is it real? It was posted on a UFO account / as a
UFO video so its suspect in that regard.
