Subject: Meteor on 31 July 1999
Hi all: I hope this message is appropriate for this forum; if not,
apologies in advance. I'm an astronomer at the Anglo-Australian
Observatory in Sydney, Australia (I work in extragalactic astronomy, so
not too up on meteor/meteorite research and observations). Last week I
received a phone call from a woman who was in Eastern Serbia in July 1999,
and saw what she thinks was a very bright fireball on the evening of July
31/99. She is very keen to learn more about this event (it seems to have
had a big impact on her life), and I wondered if anybody knew of other
sightings in the same part of the world (I'm sorry I can't be more precise
about the location). I've had a look through the email archives and other
sites, and wonder if it could be related to the Dutch/Belgian
meteor/meteorite on the same day?
Thanks very much to anyone who can help; it would also be appreciated
if you could copy any replies directly to me at:
