(meteorobs) Stardust Re-entry : follow-up

[Thomas Ashcraft]

 To forward scatter meteor observers:
   
  I am pleased to report at least one successful forward scatter radio observation ( with audio specimen) of the Stardust capsule re-entry January 15, 2006 by Stephen McGreevy in Northern California. 
   
  See  http://www.auroralchorus.com/stardust.htm 

It is interesting to note the distinct similarities between Stephen's audio recording and my own space shuttle re-entry recordings at :

  I believe there is possible data in these audio observations that could help radio meteor observers distinguish between natural meteors and re-entering manmade debris or spacecraft.

I am still soliciting any other Stardust reentry observations.
   
  Thank you.
