| Name | Genevieve d |
| Experience Level | 5/5 |
| Remarks | I have another image which has the constellations labeled, let me know if you want it. It is definitely an Orionid. I did not see this fireball, but I caught it on camera. The exposure was 20 sec, focal length 10mm (the image is cropped and it was taken with a crop sensor camera), ISO 1600. I did see two fireballs earlier - around 2:20 am and 3:30 am - but I don't remember the details. |
