Auroras, a meteor. February 15, 2025.

Many nights in a row with auroras. A meteoroid disintegrated at about UTC 18.59, hence a bright meteor was imaged. Location: Ørsta, Norway. Details: 7.5mm fisheye-lens, Canon 650D.

This meteor was also captured by an AllSky7 camera (AMS135) I operate jointly with the Norwegian Meteor Network.

SpaceX spiral. Aurora. Fireball. March 04/05, 2024

Beautiful auroral activity on March 4/5, 2024. There was an intense, and brief, spiral in front of the aurora at am 02.00 (local time) on March 05, 2024. Just above the mountain. It turned out to be a Falcon-9 rocket (2nd-stage) from SpaceX. A fireball was also captured during the observation run. Please, find times notated on the images.
