Danny Bersch, a colleague, and I both went to the Florence Junction site
on 16 November. In the early morning hours of 17 November he captured
this meteor on film. Amazingly, he was shooting from a fixed tripod.
The meteor entered his frame before star trails started to form so the
exposure time was less than 30 seconds and perhaps as little as 15 seconds.
