(meteorobs) UARS and sporadic fireballs

[Wayne Hally]

I'd suggest keeping a large container of salt nearby so it can be consumed a
grain at a time with every breathless report for the next day or so...

Anyway, just as a warning tale: here in the Netherlands two -5 range
sporadic meteoric fireballs were seen (and photographed by the all-sky
network) around the last UARS passage over our country, one of them
(01:32:44 UTC, -5 seen by me
personally) just 5 minutes before the pass, the other (01:54:14 UTC) 17
minutes after the pass.

Goes to show that not every fireball phenomena coinciding closely to UARS
pass times of last night need be UARS. Be carefull there.
