Details:
At around 3:24AM, while asleep, this fireball was captured on a GoPro 10 in raw format. This 30 sec, iso 800 image, ~109 degree horizon f.o.v. (looking from northeast to southeast). This meteor traveled ~ 35 degrees in this image. Glow at extreme right is Tucson.
What was remarkable was this event created a smoke train that was visible for more than 45 minutes and was recorded as a time lapse. I will upload in the future.
Based on everything I know, I would guess that this meteor reached at least -8 magnitude. With clear nights expected until Wednesday, I will try for more spectacular visitors.
