Accross the world there are local networks of people who track meteors and fire balls with cameras. One possibility of this thread could be to collect links to local networks, so people can go an check out what is going on in their local skies.
In Denmark there is:
Social network page: _https://www.facebook.com/stjerneskud/
Twitter account _https://twitter.com/stjerneskudinfo where updates get posted automatically directly from the cameras
A website: _stjerneskud.info that lists the observation
A site where one can report observations of fire balls: _http://www.ildkugle.dk
The inspiration for this thread arose as I saw a picture from the UK Meteo Network which presented the picture attached below. The picture gives rise to many questions about the coverage and sensitivity of the various cameras, but shows that there are many cameras in Europe that keep their lenses open, when others are asleep. In order to show up on the twitter there has to be two camera observations, otherwise there is no data to calculate the orbit and pathway. Sometimes there are spectacular events that get missed out, because of lack of sufficient and accurate observations. If there is only one or no camera the observations of people have to be accurate, which is why the above page _www.ildkugle.dk has many questions in case one wishes to report. For instance there was a bright fireball over eastern Denmark on november 18, but not enough incoming data from cameras and or people to do more calculations.
For UK I found so far:
Twitter account: _https://twitter.com/UKMeteorNetwork
Web page: _https://ukmeteornetwork.co.uk/ For instance the just published a full report of the fireball observed in late November 24-25: _https://ukmeteornetwork.co.uk/news/fireball-night-full-report/
