Hi Dirk, In that top video, the bright blue star right of center is Sirius. The dimmer star at top center is Procyon. The third bright star at the right side (above the bolide) is Betelgeuse. If you look very closely, you can see the 3 belt stars of Orion, and the bolide passed just to the left of them. Wherever this camera is located, the bolide terminated at a bearing of around 240 degrees (i.e. WSW). I can give a more precise azimuth once I know the camera's location. --Rob
