| Name | Peter L |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | Security camera videos, looking South East from Winnipeg. The sky was mostly clear, and this was one hour after sunset, so there's just a bit of twilight left. After seeing reports from Minnesota of a meteor with event https://fireball.amsmeteors.org/members/imo_view/event/2024/5396, I checked security camera footage, and found 2 cameras had recorded the meteor. The first camera has a better angle, the second camera has a better resolution, but a worse angle for this meteor. Both videos are cropped to 1920x1080 and then merged. From my perspective, this meteor appeared very close in the sky to Saturn in the ESE sky. |
