Details:
After a few months of planning our second astrophotography shoot of 2015, the frigid temperatures here in Maine didn't stop us from going out to time lapse the rise of the Milky Way over the Penobscot River next to the old pilings at Sandy Point Beach.
On the left side of this image a brilliant green fireball streaks down towards the horizon and leaves a bright reflection on the water. There were many reports of a fireball in the PA/OH area via The American Meteor Society at this same time (February 17 around 5AM EST) so we can only assume this is a capture of that event.
