Hi all.

Posted on another forum (not astronomy related) was the following:

I also saw the same heading NNW from Bordertown SA. Just wondering where may be the best place to see/hear/find out what it was.

Any help, greatly appreciated.


cheers

Filfy

i'll ask at meteorobs if any re-entries were due, was it coming from the west heading nnw?

Comet Eh !
Would have been great to see what sounds like a good sized Bolide & perhaps Meteorite

try and image a comet THAT fast

after all the regular sightings in the news of plane contrails being described as anything from comets to (VERY slow moving) meteors over the years, nothing surprises me now

wonder if it was that blinkin golf ball that would be funny, but seriously that wouldnt be big enough to create a sonic boom one would think?

thats a bit strange, about 6pm (still daylight) i was at my neighbours place and i hear both of them say wow look at that, by the time i looked there was nothing, they said it was a greenish coloured meteor that was very bright.
(to be very bright in daylight?!?!!!) im so sad i missed it, they were laughing as they know im always out with the scope looking to the stars
(they were looking NNE btw)
no loud noises or anything that we noticed.

Excellent link that. Thankyou.

This was also mentioned along side the above quote.
That was near Wakierie.

no, thankyou! for posting a great report here mate,
and to monoxide! that is indeed cruel LOL

the guru('s) at meteorobs said no space debris re-entries were due - so good ol' natural event looks like
