(meteorobs) fireball obs.



Hi All

I just observed a fireball, Mag. Approx. -6. green-wht. In color,  location obs. from 37-14-43.9 N  113-50-14.5. Beginning at approx 70deg. elev. 180 deg. azim. Went behind a hill at approx. 30deg. elev. 260 deg. azim. In about 4 sec. This was the slowest meteor I have ever seen! Looked as though it could have made it to the ground, I wish I had been higher. I didn’t see for sure if it was already on its way prior to seeing it. I have filled out a report on the IMO site.
