>>... but at 3:05 UT a
bright flash at 7hrs 40 +34, just above Castor, caught my attention -- from
about 45 degrees or more DCV. It lasted less than a second and was at -7,
roughly. I detected no motion and there were no other subsequent flashes.
If was a fireball, it was a point meteor. I didn't list it in my report --
having been seen so indirectly there was no way to determine what it was.<<
I'd be a little suspect thinking that a -7 fireball could be a point meteor.
A bright meteor might travel a little further than a dimmer meteor would,
making it less likely to appear as a point meteor....perhaps a very short
meteor?
