A significant fireball, rivaling the full moon in brightness, was seen over 
the northeastern USA and Ontario, Canada near 2330 EDT on April 26 (0330 
Universal Time April 27). Most of the reports received by the American 
Meteor Society indicate a duration of five seconds with a strong 
bluish-green color. At this time it appears this object was a sporadic 
(random) fireball, not associated with any known stream.

Clear Skies!
