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.

Northern Taurid. November 10, 2023.

This meteor was observed using a Canon 250D, and a Meka fisheye-lens. Unfortunately some ice on the lens. It was also recorded on a camera station (AMS 135) that I maintain. This camera station is contributing to the Norwegian meteornetwork ( Norsk meteornettverk). More info on this event can be found here.

This meteor appeared earlier. Photo details: Canon 250D, Meka fisheye-lens.
