Hi Phil!
I hope all that are seeing this sort of thing are reporting it on the AMS
Fireball sight! It really helps us all reporting it there. Very easy to do
and only takes a few minutes.

Happy Holidays!

Subject: [meteorite-list] Strange Meteor
We saw a strange meteor tonight from Plymouth, Indiana. We were facing
south and I looked east just in time to see a very bright meteor falling
at a 45 degree angle. I've never seen one quite like it. It looked like a
very bright star dropping in a straight line with no tail or flashes or
changes in brightness. Then it suddenly went out. It literally looked like
a falling star. It was so bright, I thought it was an airplane or car
light reflection in the windshield. I've seen lots of meteors, but never
one like that.
