As a relative newbie to this field, I've been pouring through books, websites
and videos on youtube learning more about meteorites and meteorite hunting.
There appears to be good information out there for the beginning hunter to get

Hi List and Hammer Fans,

Mr. K. Sasatani found a hole in the boot of his car and meteorite fragments
were on and inside the boot.

I believe that I saw this fireball, though I think it was closer to
1:00 AM. I was traveling south on I-95 in Delaware when I saw a
bright streak (looked like some fragmentation) to my right (was in
the passenger side of a car). I can probably find my location on

Interesting that most of the reports state around 1:10 - 1:15, with the

I agree with Darren's new info. This is probably not in PA. I have started
plots and this looks more like over Maryland's Serpentine Barrens/Belt or more
southerly. Which may include West Virginia.
CAUTION: This could very well be in the vicinity of Camp David when more info
is confirmed.
My Bad, Peter, I thought I remembered him having to pick some of it up off the
ground, I didn't realize it had entered the trunk/boot.

that they do. Especially when their work is scientifically rigorous and they

Not many reports have come from MD, the ones I have seen are a bit off as

Also I have read of the reports that the booms were best heard from PA area,
