Remarks |
I contacted members of the Houston Astronomical Society today via Facebook, and so far, five of us happened to be facing north around 9pm last night, when we saw a bright flash in the sky. However, our observations were a bit different in terms of angle and color, some people saying it was more greenish, while I definitely saw yellow. And the president of our club also saw a yellow one from our dark site around 9pm! I hope everyone reports their observations! Unfortunately, my viewing angle from home was partially obstructed, so I only got to see it for part of its trajectory before it disappeared behind the obstruction! In the short time I saw it, it was a really bright yellow, and broke up a little bit along its path. At first I thought it was some kind of fireworks, but then I remembered seeing a horizontally-flying yellow Fireball that looked EXACTLY like this one during the Persieds a few years ago. |
