Fantastic!
Are the flashes caused by the breaking up of the meteor?

Hi Chia, nice demo and meteor there!

But I'm curious... the way you put out the cam... won't any of your neighbours or ppl in the neighbourhood "complain"? "Complain" as in thinking you're "spying" them etc?
You know dat children are growing up when they start asking questions that have answers...
