Bright Early Morning Meteor
August 3, 2025 - Albany, Missouri
Photographer: Dan Bush - Missouri Skies
I witnessed this in person. There was fragmentation seen in the flight path...or small pieces falling off the main body. I had just finished imaging Titan's shadow on Saturn and was shutting everything down in the observatory when this happened. I was lucky to have been looking up at the moment.
Any apparent curvature in the flight path is caused by the wide-angle camera lens. I belive that this was sporadic although at first I thought it might be an Alpha Capricornid. The Alpha Cap. radiant was on the other side of the sky so hard to tell.
