Leonid fireball November 18th 2012. Armagh Observatory, UK
You may find the following link of interest.
http://star.arm.ac.uk/movies/2012/AllSky/
`AllSky` observation from N. Ireland, 7 hour animation. Time GMT.
Especially of interest are Frames 306 to frame 330.
After the `fireball` in Orion at frame 306 the continuation and dispersal of material is clearly visible in the animation for about 15 to 20 minutes.
I have still to fully analyse and assess our simultaneous ELF recording and spectrogram for the minute corresponding to frame 306. I am waiting for other visual and radio scatter reports to better pin down an exact time for the fireball/fragmentation phase.
(Although there is one `ELF event` which has a following brief bursting `hail on a tin roof effect` just like a Sprite but much shorter in duration! Explosive distribution of material after the end flare but before long term dispersal and `disturbance` at that altitude?)
At the moment we only have one other (unconfirmed) video observation of this `fireball` (from Bayfordbury `AllSky`) a site 500 km South East of us near London, so the following estimation of its position and altitude is approximate...
"I think that the Bayfordbury frame capture that I showed you is also our `fireball`. Its observed position appears to correspond.
Using the AMS meteor meniscus graph, some basic equations and geometry and knowing the RA and DEC of the relevant nearby stars (to enable `fireball` azimuth and elevation estimation at the time of observation) my initial estimate puts the observed bolide location at approximately Galway/ North Co Clare area.
That is ~250 km from us and ~800 km from Bayfordbury if at ~80-100 km altitude.
I estimate that the ablated material, seen continuing to travel and expand and subject to dispersion, would continue for several hundred km further across the Eastern Atlantic west of Mayo".
