This
Orionid fireball was captured by a video allsky
camera on the morning of October 23. The estimated
magnitude is -9, and a long, luminous trail
remains after the meteor passes. |

This
was a great show! These four submitted shots
were the best from my collection. Kudos to
Marsha Adams and Rich Swanson for capturing
the impressive fireballs over Arizona on film.
I did witness the fireball Marsha captured
but not Rich's gem. Great work to all!!!

Last
night I observed, together with 5 friend, the
Orionid meteor shower. Near the Cosmos Observatory
in Lattrop (the Netherlands) we saw some beautiful
Orionid meteors. My Canon40D camera photographed
some of them. In the combined image you can
see 4 Orionid meteors.
