Mr. Pavel Spurny, Head of the Department of Interplanetary Matter of the Astronomical Institute of the Academy of Sciences of the Czech Republic sent the following analysis from his Czech fireball network:
This bolide was captured by the Czech fireball network and recorded as event "EN250317_233548". Beginning height was 84.6 km and after 57.3 km long luminous flight the bolide terminated at a height of 28.6 km. It was quite steep, the average slope was 77.8 degrees. It’s initial mass was 5.7 kg and in the maximum it reached -11.1 absolute magnitude (normalized on 100km distance). All mass was practically ablated, only very small, in the maximum several grams meteorites could land on the ground eastward from Austrian town Zwettl. It had a typical asteroidal orbit with perihelion near Earth orbit (0.9 AU) and aphelion in the central parts of the main belt of asteroids (2.7 AU).
