This morning I captured a -8.5 fireball that I think was a near point
source Perseid. I also believe this fireball made a detectable VLF-ELF
radio emission. I posted a movie at the links below with an embedded
all-sky map.

Any analysis or critique is welcome. One camera view cannot determine
the radiant but I think it was a Perseid.
More importantly, I do believe this fireball is a positive VLF-ELF
direct emission candidate.
