Photographic Fireball Networks
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 12 April 2016
Abstract
Three networks for the photography of bright fireballs are now in operation; in the central United States, central Europe and western Canada. A detailed comparison is made of the parameters which describe the three networks. Although only two meteorites for which photographic orbital data is available have been recovered, the networks are contributing valuable data on fireball orbits, influx rates and problems of meteor physics.
