I might have seen it too if others din't feel the cold
Lovely to see it through your eyes. How long did it take to pass?
Penny
thank you all
I have just had an email from The Meteor Director from the Society for Popular Astronomy (who is using this image for major research) who says we witnessed one of the more rarest events on the night we shot together in Birmingham, with Rip Rap as well ..... it only was flying for about 60 seconds and we saw all of it ![]()
Such naturally-occurring very long-lived meteors happen-by perhaps only a few times per century for any given place, so this was a most fortunate sighting for the witnesses
So thanks
Diana
