Details:
I captured a very bright Quadrantid fireball on 2024 January 04 at 04h12m UT while taking a break due to clouds, using my Canon 40D at ISO 800 with 17-mm lens at f/3.2 and 30 s exposure.
This same fireball, together with persistent train was also captured in full by two cameras from Rezman Observatory, Slovenia.
The fisheye view shows both the fireball and the Moon – the fireball rivals and possibly exceeds the Moon brightness (magnitude -10 at the time)!
