WE REALLY NEED MORE EYE-WITNESSES TO THIS FIREBALL TO COME FORWARD!

If you witnessed this fireball from the greater Stockton Area and you saw it travel to the EAST and/or NORTHEAST, then for sure, you should contact Dr. Fries at the email or phone number in the above article: http://lunarmeteoritehunters.blogspot.com/2009/05/nasa-scientist-begins-search-for.html

BUT, if you saw the fireball to the SOUTHEAST, then I would really like to talk to you about what you saw, and in what direction you last saw the meteor end its flight.
Please telephone (818)599-5071
