Sighting -Gape Porcllu, Yarmouth Co., With reference to tne recent telephone conversation between Sgt. P, V. Meyer and Mrs. McCall of our ~leteor Centre, and the letter from you, we have examined the colour print and the negative whic~ you mlliled to us. l!xamination of the original colour film Wl!le:r a microscope shows that the cause of the re'd speck on the print,, H1 inches to tne right of the lighthouse, is due to a small scratcll which completely penetrated the emulsion. We can find no evidence of any real oliject in the sky on the phot.ograph. The characteristics of the object described by Mr.~ correspond to those wbich a meteor fireball would have. It seems that with such a short-lived phenomena (5 seconds according to Mr.-description), the fireball had become invisible by the time he could have swung his camera into action. We are placing our copy of the report in our meteor fireball file, and are returning the negative and photographic print to you, wish to thank the R.C.M.P. for bringing this report to our 7? attention and the cooperation of your staff fn sending the photograph 9~ ~to our Centre.
