Hi, Giovanni, List,

    Thanks for the video. This is one of the very best
fireball films I've ever seen! Truly spectacular!

    In the first interview with an astronomer in the news
report, I was able to pick out only two words (or maybe
it was one word): SUPER-BOLIDE.

    I suspect it was massive enough to have gotten some
remnants to the ground. The arc and the late, low-level
fragmentation also suggest a slower than usual entry
speed, another factor that aids getting fragments to the
ground.

    It's a great video.
