Hello List,
For those that are interested, there is a very
informative thread about this South Wales Fireball on
this website:
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/meteorobs/

http://www.meteorobs.org/maillist/maillist-10-2003.html
There is way too much about this fireball for me to
post it all here. But the general consensus is that
the image is real but the jury is still out on whether
it is re-entry debris or asteroidal.
A question has been raised recently about whether
there is a correlation between an increase in the
number of fireball sightings with an increase in the
number of NEO asteroid "close-calls"?
In other words, doesn't it appear that every time we
have a press release about a "close-call with a NEO
asteroid" that we also have a "spike" in the number of
news reports about bolides?
Is there an asteroidal debris cloud crossing Earth's
orbit?
??

Is this real?
It looks real, but then the front end of the fireball
looks fake. If it happened, why havent we hard it all
over the news being that it is in the UK?
