Meteor Society Tries To
Track Down Fireball Paths
The American Meteor society,
whose president is Dr. C. P. Olivier
of the University of Pennsylvania,
Is deeply Interested In determining
the heights, paths, and possible
landing places of spectacular fire
balls, which light up the night like
day, are often quite noisy, and are
seen from localities hundreds of
miles apart. Sometimes newspaper
requests for observers' accounts
bring over 100 letters to the regional
director of Uie society. The present
writer received 617 reports on the
twilight meteor seen over California
and Nevada, November 29. 1945.
The method of tracing will be de
scribed next week.
Although the meteor society un
dertakes to trace and publicize only

welcome Isolated reports on quite
unusual and strange meteors.
During December 1947, aside from
two spectacular fireballs, accounu
of three lesser, but very Interesting,
meteors were received. On the 9th,
an air corps veteran reported he
had Just seen a fairly bright object
which appeared to be traveling hori
zontally. Just skimming along the
tops of the distant Cascades. Its
motion seemed relatively slow It
was likely 200 or 300 miles away
during the four or five seconds It
was In view. Near the end of the
flight the Impression was received
that It actually was getting slightly
higher.
On the Hlh at 6:50 a. m. a news
paper boy was startled by a flash,
and on looking up saw "an awfully
big white llRht right overhead"
dashing northward across the only
clear place in the sky. In a fraction
of a second It struck a cloud layer
and was lost. The boy was greatly
excited.
At about 8 a. m. the day before
Christmas the wife of a newspaper
editor saw a curious green light
floating leisurely down the sky. "It
did not seem to change In size or
color, nor did It explode as some
meteors do. It was so interesting it
seemed like 30 seconds before It dis
appeared behind the trees, but I
imagine It was only a small frac
tion of that time." It too was likely
very large and quite distant
The California-Nevada fireball of
194S was both spectacular and
strange. To those obtaining a side
view. It seemed to be traveling al
most horizontally, and was surely In
sight for 20 seconds. It was vari
ously described as a "luminous ci
gar." "a flaming blue monster."
"ell-like." "a green Iridescent fish"
and "a nebulous and slimy pollywog
going through the sky." But a wom
an at Napa, Calif, ended her de
scription with, 'This meteor was a
thing of beauty, long to be treasured
In memory's chest."
A big meteor is a sight of a life
time. It- is often mistaken for a
plane falling in flames, or a foreign
"infernal machine" of some sort.
During the recent war. one such ob
ject caused a great deal of expense
to the army and F.B.I, before its
nature was determined.
