Initial Meteor Sighting Reports-
My name is Abby, When walking to my bus stop in benton harbor michigan i saw something green and fast going across the sky around 7:05 am totally caught me by surprise

26SEP2013 Jim Rickner Grand Rapids, Michigan 7:10 Eastern 3 seconds West to South East Green / Blue Very Bringht / fireworks Yes I've never seen one before

26SEP2013 Michelle Wilson Liberty Township, OH 07:05 EST 9 United States White with firetail extremely bright broke apart Fairly large, brief flame tail, then broke apart

26SEP2013 Emerson Davis Indianapolis, Indiana USA 07:03 EST 4 sec I was facing due south and it streaked from right to left Golden Yellow, silent About as bright as moon Yes, fragments stayed directly in line with meteor, directly behind it It was unusually dim for a meteor, however it did have the same speed

26SEP2013 Peter M Mishawaka, IN 7:03am EDT 3 sec W-E across southern sky greenish hue around edge of streak, white in middle. no sound audible from my location brightness similar to full moon in a clear sky Parts not visibly falling off but it did flicker once or twice before going out. Here's what I wrote up shortly after seeing it so I wouldn't forget: "A bright streak, occurring from west to east across the southern sky and lasting 2-3 seconds, was visible this morning between 7:00 and 7:05am EDT. It was observed from SouthPaw Farm, south of Mishawaka, IN (16323 Roosevelt Rd, Mishawaka IN 46544). The streak was very bright and had a slight greenish hue to it, especially around the edges. It maintained steady brightness at first, before fading somehwat and flickering once or twice at the end. The appearance was somewhat like a firework or flare, but given the location and time neither of these seem logical. My best guess is that it was a meteor of some kind."

26SEP2013 John Louisville, KY 7:03:00 10 seconds Facing north, the fireball went west to east Orange blue and green Very bright like fireworks in the sky It seemed to be getting brighter as it fell and appeared to be shedding It freaked me out at first as I wasn't sure what it was. I feared it was a plane that had exploded and burned up. It was huge and very impressive.

26SEP2013 Chris Roush Jasper, IN United States 07:00 AM EDT 3 sec W-E white with blue tail same as moon No Just over the trees at US 231 near S. Witz Rd.

26SEP2013 Kathy Northern Ohio 700 5 sec West to East Orange-Red moon NA - too dark to tell Observed at I-75 mile marker 139 heading southbound. Two other vehicles also saw the event and slowed down while driving.

Initial Meteor Sighting Reports-
21SEP2013 Cathy Walsh Edmonton, AB, Canada 2238 MST 4 sec NW TO N Yellow, Green Moonish Tail What a nice surprise!

21SEP2013 Stacie Brayton Edmonton, Alberta, Canada 22:38:00 6 sec NW-NE Green Moon Had long tail Was too quick, very bright, long yellow/orange tail.

21SEP2013 DAN H FT McMurray, Alberta, Canada 10PM Mountain 5-7 seconds S-N Bright Yellow Fireball sunlike brightness None apparent Witnessed by 4 individuals

21SEP2013 Paul Phillips Keg River, Alberta, Canada 10-15 kms South of Keg River intersection on Mackenzie Highway 2240MST Was driving. 4 seconds from daylight effect to viewing fireball heading into the horizon east Was a full moon, noticed sky turn as bright as day, couldn't figure out light source until I looked left and saw the fireball ~1000 ft off the ground heading East Brighter than the full moon. No fragmentation, but clearly visible vapour trail which crested 4-5 smoke puffs along routed for the 1.5 seconds I actually viewed the fireball. Was driving at night in a remote section of Canada just south of the NWT/AB border. When the sky lit up I couldn't identify what was lighting up the sky for about a second. When I looked left I could see the fireball with visible flames licking around it less than 1000 feet off the ground. Unfortunately I was driving and only witnessed its path for less than 2 seconds. Stereo was cranked so I heard no sound. What surprised me was that I didn't see it coming from the other side but it passed almost directly over the car. It's movement when I could actually see it was surprisingly slow, so close to the ground. I almost expected to see a large flash as I predicted it would impact very soon, but no such luck. Seeing this phenomenon in such a remote place, along at night really freaked me out. Stereo was turned off for the next hour as I scanned the sky for more potential targets...ha ha.

NASA Hosts Workshop to Discuss Asteroid Initiative Ideas

NASA Hosts Workshop to Discuss Asteroid Initiative Ideas
  NASA will host a public workshop to examine and synthesize 96 of the ideas
submitted to a Request for Information (RFI) about the agency's asteroid
initiative. The workshop will be held Sept. 30 - Oct. 2 at the Lunar and
Planetary Institute in Houston.
  The workshop will feature discussions by experts from NASA, the agency's
international partners, private industry and the public. Topics include how
best to identify, capture and relocate a near-Earth asteroid for closer
study, how to respond to asteroid threats, as well as partnership,
crowdsourcing and citizen science ideas. Workshop results will be considered
for future planning as NASA refines the details of its mission.
  NASA's fiscal year 2014 budget proposes an asteroid initiative that includes
a strategy to leverage human and robotic activities for a first-ever human
mission to an asteroid, while also accelerating efforts to improve detection
and characterization of asteroids. The work aligns the agency's ongoing
efforts in science, new technology development and human exploration.
  NASA received more than 400 ideas in response to the June RFI. The ideas were
submitted by industry, universities, international organizations, and for the
first time, individual members of the public. NASA's selection process
involved agency scientists, engineers and mission planners who are
formulating details of the asteroid initiative.
  Each session will be webcast on NASA's UStream channel, and virtual
participation is encouraged. Because of limited capacity, in-person
attendance is limited to invited, registered presenters. Selected sessions
also will be broadcast on NASA Television. Virtual audience members can ask
questions through the UStream chat function and via Twitter with
session-specific hashtags. Complete schedule information, live webcasts,
hashtags, and other details on how to participate virtually can be found at:
http://go.nasa.gov/1gW1MId 

Media interested in attending the workshop in person should contact Rachel
Kraft at rachel.h.kraft@nasa.gov or Sarah Ramsey at sarah.ramsey@nasa.gov .
