HUGE fireball over BuckSnort!

Last night (11:47 pm, June 20, 2011) I caught a HUGE fireball on my meteor camera at BuckSnort Observatory in Central Texas. This was certainly the biggest meteor I have captured so far.


The video sequence was captured using a Watec video camera, f/0.8 lens, and UFOCapture software.

How did I miss this? Anyone acting strange around BuckSnort since you saw this?
