During my last run at the Catalina Schmidt I had a meteor
streak through one field and it left a nice smoke trail.

Wow! Thanks for sharing with us! Awesome! If you click on the
image for a larger view and then click once again for a still larger
view, you can easily recognize the two Virgo galaxies to the upper
right and if I'm not mistaken, it's NGC 4124 (an SA spiral galaxy)
and NGC 4178 (SBc - a barred spiral galaxy).

Best wishes,

Bernd
