(meteorobs) OT -Proceeding with IR block fireball detonation system.

[stange]

Hello Paco, Chris.

I would be satisfied to see some evidence of thermal distribution (however 
rough) during an explosion. My interest(and possible merit) is the light 
distribution of the fixed ember in the earlier test. It clearly showed the 
temperature gradients surrounding the ember which characterized the hot ash 
which could also be a model of particle separation within a meteoroid during 
moments of detonation.

My equipment(speed & resolution) is not up to any kind of full 
investigation. Just a little evidence would be good here.....that there is 
more to be seen.

Best part is....the filter can be unscrewed from its mount returning the 
system back to standard meteor detection in seconds when I go up to the 
patio roof.  :-)

Comments acknowledged Chris. Tnx.

Interesting Chris! What would we expect from the 3 colour data?

Thanks!
