Reports Report 2305ax (Event 2305-2014)
| Observer | |
|---|---|
| Name | Andy H |
| Experience Level | 4/5 |
| Remarks | My partner in New Smyrna Beach, FL (report submitted independently to AMS) and I are video meteor camera observing partners who monitor the same volume of atmosphere. Although we did not image the meteor trail directly, we concurrently saw an event flash, probably when the bolide exploded. We believe it is related to AMS Event 2305. We use Time Machines GPS units to keep synchronous time typically within +/- 0.001 second. |
