Hi all,

I hope to track the path of a fireball that was witnessed by myself and many
others here in Ireland. This occurred at 23:25 BST on Mars night 27th
August. I have some observation reports and expect soon to have access to a
lot more.

I have read O.R. Nortons method of tracking from the Rocks from Space book.
Could anyone add something to this or provide a "new angle" for me, or
expand on the method. Trigonometry was not a hot subject of mine but with
some guidance I can work it through.

Falls are not too common here in Ireland and finds even less. If some
material was found it would be pretty major.

Thanks in advance for your help on this.
