On Sept. 13th a remarkable fireball split the skies over New Mexico. Witnesses
say it "turned night into day" and reminded them of a full Moon hurtling across
the sky. In fact, it was brighter than a full Moon. At least two all-sky
cameras captured the event while one amateur astronomer recorded radio echoes
from the fireball's ionized trail. What was it? Probably a piece of reentering
space junk, but this is not yet certain. Visit http://spaceweather.com for
updates plus sights and sounds of the Great New Mexico Fireball.
