(meteorobs) The 1907 Fireball



Dear All,

Regarding the 1907 Hawaii event, I think that something could be printed in
local newspapers of 1907.  I hope that somebody would be able to search for
and post results here.
Also several other similar "hits and near-hits" are in my www-page:

Best wishes,
