Hi,

Does anyone have any references, or recollection, of the circumstances
of the fireball which proceeded the meteorite fall at Salzwedel on the
14th November, 1985. Direction of travel, magnitude, locations of
observers - that sort of thing?

Met. Bull. No. 64, Meteoritics_ 21*, 309-313 (1986) simply says, "A
single mass weighing 43g was found in a wood after a fireball had been
seen, ref. of 1986".

I'm curious to know if it could have been seen from south-east England -
unlikely I know, but maybe possible?...

Many thanks,
