Are you sure??? That looks like an airplane to me and no mention of it
being a meteor is made on spaceweather.com... Rather the story is simply
about the conjunction of the moon with the Pleiades...

Clear Skies!

> Dear List, A large bolide passed near Hatoyama, Saitama, Japan on 7APR2011 (near my house; of course I missed it - winds were blowing to hard to be on the roof) a few hours prior to the earthquake. A photo of the event was taken by an mateur astronomer Mitsuo Muraoka in Hatoyama out of an observatory. There is a story on SpaceWeather; a link to it is on my site:
