Hi Moni, Martin, and Peter, etc.:
This is a good opportunity for my usual Call for papers. The August issue
is well on its way to production and Nancy and I are already starting to
work on the November issue. Yes, I have said it before: it never ends.
1. In response to you, Moni, I have already
Ehm... shouldn't we find first a piece of that fall at all?
Not that this exchange of demonstrations of respect and amenities
will have been in the end
about nothing.

Thanks Geoff, Just received the magazine! Cool article. Beautiful
cover art.
I have been curious about Tucson as a city and the magazine has a wealth
of info on Tucson.
Thanks again, Tom

It is a kind of blood sport, gotta have fun with it.
I wish we had the greatest meteorite hunter in the world here.
He could sure help us in AZ. It hasn't always been this way, we used to have
fun with them, but now it is all contracts and publicists, gotta get into
character and makeup, more

Dear Mike:
Once again you are completely wrong and gassing about things of which
you know nothing. We don't wear makeup and, in case you hadn't

I hate to be a party pooper when everybody is all excited about having a photo
of a meteor fall but astro mikes photo shown on his webpage here:

Is not exactly all that it is cracked up to be.
Well...I' ve been gone these last 3 weeks and had to delete about 800
emails. Looks like I missed a lot of activity. I have to agree with Dean about
this photo...looks like an aircraft to me. I got many negatives with the
same patterns and I
That's an interesting assessment, Dean. I have captured numerous aircraft on
long exposure and they all have strobes and appear as segmented lines. This
one certainly does not, though it may be so close that it is not showing the
break in strobes. Either way, it's definitely something to ponder,
Hey Dean, List,
OK all... Before we get all excited over this. The photo IS in fact 100%
a fireball, without a doubt it is a fireball fragmentation. It came from
Mike Hankey and he has graciously let me post it on my meteorite blog.
There is an explanation of the photo below with links to
Another interesting feature that points to fireball is that the light
streaks are not consistent in intensity - like a flickering object. This
could be due to over-enhancement, but I don't think so. Every other
telescope/long exposure image I can find on the web (of aircraft) shows them
like solid
Well one thing for certain this NOT the same perspective which was first
posted. Live an learn.

Mike Hankey,
I still think it's an airplane. If it was a meteor, I'd expect to see
perhaps some weak afterglow image of the train snaking in the upper
atmosphere.
I see no hint of this. Unless the photographer stopped the exposure less
than a second after the meteor's appearance. The train snakes very
Yes, he's wearing a S.T. Command uniform. Not a captain, no braid on sleeves,
probably a Starfleet junior officer. Cool!

Likely a mistake at the space drycleaners. The guy is clearly a redshirt.
Someone needs to Photoshop in Tron Guy..
Dean and list...
when I first saw Mike's image, my first impression was, hmm, must have been
after fragmentation, because look at all those pieces! too many to be plane
lights, IMHO. also, as I've plotted the photo against a star chart to determine
scale, etc, I can tell you that the orientation
geometrically correcting for the photo's azimuth of 62 degrees...
sorry, that should be altitude, not azimuth

Whether the image proves to be an airplane of a meteor, I've always
had a hard time legitimizing people who dress-up like fictional
fantasy characters.
Best,

one more thing: I have a copy of Mike's original photo. please go to

it, and examine the two phenomena marked with arrows.
there are two very faint streaks well to the lower right of the main set, and

Hello all,
I am retracting my early statements that Astro Mike's image is of an aircraft.
He was kind enough to provide me with the original RAW file for me to examine.
This allowed me to look at the image at full resolution and at full bit depth.
I too own a Canon 20D, which is the camera he
