Below is the link to the movie showing a strange meteor. It lasted
6.12 sec, but was not very bright - around 2 mag at max. Apparent
velocity is not great - 2/5. What could be the object that caused such
a meteor. I have two thoughts: 1)this could be a slow graser, that
passed through a very outer edges of the atmosphere; 2)this could be a
reenry of small satellite remnant or other similar object with
geocentrical orbit.
