Details:
This video was taken in Cabo Rojo, PR on April 16, 2020 at 12:26am local time.The lens was slightly out of focus but that helped show the stars changing colors. The weird shape of the fireball is probably due to lens aberration. I included the star chart to show how the tail of the fireball points very near the Lyrid shower radiant. I also included the Watec image of the event to show the exact time that the fireball appeared. Hi res video here: https://vimeo.com/408578983
