The superb fireball in this video was recorded from Spain on November 10, at 1:30 local time (equivalent to 0:30 universal time). Its absolute luminosity was larger than that of the full Moon. The event was generated by a rock (a meteoroid) from Comet 2P/Encke that hit the atmosphere at about 91,000 km/h. The fireball overflew the Mediterranean Sea. It began at an altitude of about 98 km over the Mediterranean Sea, moved northeast, and ended at a height of around 63 km over the Mediterranean Sea.
This bright meteor was recorded in the framework of the SMART project, operated by the Southwestern Europe Meteor Network (SWEMN) from the meteor-observing stations located at Ayora (Valencia), Huelva, La Hita (Toledo), Calar Alto (Almería), Sierra Nevada, La Sagra (Granada), Sevilla, Olocau (Valencia), Faro de Cullera (Valencia), Otura (Granada), and Mazagón (Huelva). The event has been analyzed by the principal investigator of the SMART project: Dr. Jose M. Madiedo, from the Institute of Astrophysics of Andalusia (IAA-CSIC). Its code in the SWEMN database is: SWEMN20251110_003041.
