2012 THE Year of Meteors!
Breaking News - Finland Bolide Fireball Meteor 21SEP2012
Finland Bolide Fireball Meteor ~ 00:34:41 UT 21SEP2012
We had here in Finland a very bright bolide in the Sept. night 20/21 at 00:34:41 UT ( at the side of the day 21.). I attach the FINE images from Mikkeli by Aki Taavitsainen and Jani Lauanne and the color image ( with web camera) by Harri Frestadius in Lappeenranta
This was not a meteorite dropper, but had the entry velocity of as big
as about 66 kilometers and exploded at the height of about 80 km.
I have been very busy with this the wole day of yesterday. I got mixed
in the count of, into how may cameras this was captured, but it is about
15 . I may later check this count. In any case this is our new recond in
this. In addition to this, a good number of visual sightings was
received, even tough at an unfavorable time of night.
Also this fireball was probably the brightest that we have ever captured
in our cameras directly visible.

Meteor Sighting!
Hiya, I've seen something strange in the sky over Merthyr Tydfil, South Wales! It was heading in a South West direction. It looked like a ball of fire going thru the sky with a firery tail trailing. It then looked like it had broken into small balls of light as it slowed down, coming lower to the ground! This occurred at 22.55 GMT on 21/09/12. I'd like to know if anyone else may have reported to have observed the same incident. Or if you know what this was, could you let me know please? I'd be very grateful.
Thanks, Kylie! Thank you Kylie!!
METEOR UK!
I have just seen a fire ball pass outside my house, I live in Bolton Upon Dearne, Rotherham, South Yorks UK. I happened to be outside with my dog at 10.50pm. It travelled in an east to west flat trajectory and estimate its altitude to have only been around 100m, i followed its path for a good ten seconds before it impacted in the Manvers/Wombwell Low Valley area. The ball was large and cycling in colour from white, gold, silver and blue. The trail also cycled the same colours. I estimate the trail to have been around 30m inlength. The ball its sell did break up into 4 pieces, 2 smaller, 1 medium and 1 quite large just before impact. - jcnorthuk

Hiya, I've seen something strange in the sky over Merthyr Tydfil, South Wales! It was heading in a South West direction. It looked like a ball of fire going thru the sky with a firery tail trailing. It then looked like it had broken into small balls of light as it slowed down, coming lower to the ground! This occurred at 22.55 GMT on 21/09/12. I'd like to know if anyone else may have reported to have observed the same incident. Or if you know what this was, could you let me know please? I'd be very grateful.
Thanks, Kylie! Thank you Kylie!!

I have just seen a fire ball pass outside my house, I live in Bolton Upon Dearne, Rotherham, South Yorks UK. I happened to be outside with my dog at 10.50pm. It travelled in an east to west flat trajectory and estimate its altitude to have only been around 100m, i followed its path for a good ten seconds before it impacted in the Manvers/Wombwell Low Valley area. The ball was large and cycling in colour from white, gold, silver and blue. The trail also cycled the same colours. I estimate the trail to have been around 30m inlength. The ball its sell did break up into 4 pieces, 2 smaller, 1 medium and 1 quite large just before impact. - jcnorthuk
Thank you!!!
