(meteorobs) Possible daylight fireball caught on camera overMiddlesex, UK 14/04/10

[Jason Utas]

Hello All,
Compared to other videos of fireballs, that body is moving *very* slowly.
Also note the lack of a distinct head/tail and any fragmentation.
None of these facts would rule it out as a fireball, but if it is one,
it would have to be a very strange, slow-moving one...that doesn't
leave a smoke train on a fairly clear day.
Regards,
Jason
