Large bolide on the Sunshine Coast 6 - 6:30 last night
Did anyone else from the Sunshine Coast/Brisbane see the fireball/bolide last night around 6 - 6:30 pm (too excited to remember to look at the time ). It was South Southwest (no more than 20 deg from due south) from where I was at -26.52,152.79. It fell from near zenith to about 15 deg above the horizon, where it broke up into about half a dozen or so pieces.
Yes, my wife and I saw it at 6:22pm Saturday as she was driving me home from an unscheduled trip to the doctor (as I had the unfortunate experience of stepping on a blue-spotted stingray over on Peel Island in Moreton Bay and I received a nasty and very painful laceration on my heel - I now know why thay are called stingrays!).
The meteor was about as bright as Venus, one of the brightest I've seen!
