An effect of ram-air pressure heating the surface and interior of a mass 
however small, in a high velocity approach from outer space into the earths 
upper atmosphere.

A VERY nice first capture shown as a composite image of meteor ablation 
which is bright enough to be described as a fireball.

Wish it had been my capture. -YCS
