A NASA all-sky monitoring station in Walker County, Georgia, recorded more than a dozen bright meteors and fireballs on same night the Moon was getting hit. This 9-hour composite image shows the activity at a glance. The best Taurid of the evening was a centimeter-sized nugget that self-destructed in flight, producing a magnitude -5 flash of light: 5MB movie.

Very bright fireball from Taurids meteor shower above northern horizon of Slovak sky was about -10 magnitude! We (Ivan Majchrovic, Tomas Maruska and Roman Piffl) observe it in Marianka near slovak capital city Bratislava at 19:42:38 UT on November 5, 2008.

At about 5:15 AM on 11-05-08, my wide angle SkyCam captured this fantastic fireball North of Port Huron, Michigan. In subsequent frames, the SkyCam recorded the vapor trail it left behind to linger for over 20 minutes! Attached is an image of the meteor and a second image of the vapor trail taken 3 minutes after the meteor had passed. Each frame is a 1 minute exposure. A time lapse video clip of the entire event can be found here:

After seeing the article on Spaceweather about the Taurid Meteor Shower I set up my camera last night and in only 5 hours I got 4 meteors and 2 that had trails persist for about 5 minutes each. I have a video showing the pics and the trails here.
