A fireball at night, as bright as a crescent moon, Pieksämäki

Nice 5 second one. With the sensitive Watt 905h camera, downright dazzling,

I made such a slightly cropped GIF from skypatrol data, the brightest flare confuses recognition.

Slightly more accurate with ASI294mc camera (16mm F2Samyang)

EDIT: After all, the pictures also showed smoke from the fireball that lasted for about 15 minutes. I added a cropped and processed gif (faster and slower). It is interesting that the brightest flare did not come from a plume of smoke, but from the beginning of the flight.

Komea tapaus. Ja jännä tosiaan tuo savuvana vain alkuosasta.

Kysymys tuosta kakkoskuvan giffistä: miksi tuollainen osaruutu- / kumulatiivinen (mutta ei maksimi) -animaatio? Liittyykö jotenkin Skypatrolin automaattitunnistukseen? Toimiiko niin, että talteen jää vain koosteruutu täydessä koossa ja tunnistuksen automaattirajatut pikkuruudut?
