This is really wild!. I was in the Florida Keys from
the 15’th tru the 22 of April with 5 others. and on Friday night, around
9 or 10:00 (or later?) in the evening
(the 21’st) we (4 of us out of six) saw 3 meteors in a row, traveling
from the east to the west. Long
streaming tails, but not particularly bright.
The 3 went by zip, zip,zip and disappeared into the Western horizon. We
did not really see them approach, but noticed them at zenith and then just
followed the tails into the horizon towards the mainland. We were in Marathon, on the
north shore of the key. I have seen
fireballs break up like this before, so I was not so overwhelmingly amazed at
seeing something like this. There was one after the other, but as I recall, I
do not think that all 3 were in view at the same time. It took about 3 to 4
seconds before all 3 disappeared on the horizon. Could this possible be the
same event? Unbelievable coincidence if
not.

Subject: [meteorite-list] Fireball
split in 2(or3) over Denmark
Some days ago (21-04-2004, 04:41
local time) a big fireball was seen splitt up in 2 or 3 pieces over
Denmark.
Just got all the raw data from alot
of observers.
Will get back with more data when I
have had a chance to look at them and put them on a map.
It seems to have gone into the sea
:-( ..... but who knows.
