Out on the back porch last night I was looking up at the sky and saw a quite impressive "flaming #meteor," i.e. a #bolide , at about 10:30 pm CDT (3:30 UTC).
Checked NASA's All-Sky Fireball Network and they didn't catch it.
But!
2½ and 3 hours later it did pick up two meteors a hundred or so miles north of me.
Travel companions?

One of two #crowdfunding projects I got burned on almost 10 years ago. The other one was on #Kickstarter and didn't even materialise...
Funny how these scams are is still online (Heck; AGENT even still pays for the site bills? http://agentwatches.com/).

Oh well.... at least I got 1 non-functional device for my museum 🤣🤣

Another #meteor across the East Coast (#DC). I'm curious why they get so many that are so visible (also, mystery booms common there too). https://www.washingtonpost.com/weather/2023/09/03/fireball-meteor-dc-midatlantic-northeast/
Video footage shows a massive #meteor ripping across the sky, turning night to day for multiple Western states in the United States.

And last, but not least, and speaking of science and space, here's an amazingly well timed photo that looks beautiful.

Letzte Nacht war etwas mehr los bei uns am Himmel. Vielleicht ein #meteor oder eher doch ein #iridiumflare ?

Ooh, while we were on vacation my backyard camera caught the #perseid #meteor shower on the night of Aug 13! Unfortunately the camera isn't all that expensive and creates an artifact where fast-moving meteors look like dashed lines, but it's fun that I can compile a timelapse like this!

Am 16. war ganz schön was los am Himmel. Zwei sehr helle Spuren.
Ich tippe bei der Süd nach Nord-Spur um 22:54:34 Uhr entweder auf ein Iridium Flare oder einen beachtlichen Meteor.
Die Aufnahme von 23:02:49 Uhr zeigt mit großer Sicherheit einen sehr hellen sich zerlegenden Meteor.

Meine (bisherige) Foto-Ausbeute der #Perseiden #Meteor #Sternschnuppen dieses Jahr.

Noch ein #Meteor #Sternschnuppe in der Nacht von Sonntag auf Montag (13.-14.8.2023) gegen 2:07 MESZ.
A non-Perseid meteor whizzes past the core of the #MilkyWay in SW #NewMexico on Saturday night.

#Perseiden 2023 (Part 2)
Hier die Ausbeute von letzter Nacht bis heute morgen. Alle Meteoriten (und einen Iridium Flare) in einem Referenzbild vereint.
Wissenswert:
Die Perseiden (Sternbild Perseus) werden durch Bruchstücke des Kometen 109P/Swift-Tuttle ausgelöst, die beim Eintritt in die Erdatmosphäre verglühen.
Der Komet verschwindet nun wieder in die unendlichen Weiten ... Far well!
