Hi Harro, There was excellent amateur footage on tonite's news by someone who observed the reentry from the Seattle, Washington area. Dozen if not hundreds of individual pieces moving across the early morning sky. Amazingly, the newscast correctly identified the display as being the reentry of a Russian booster. Wish I had seen it -- it needed to survive a few minutes longer to make it to southern California, but even so I expect the track would have been too far to the east at my latitude.

The message from Gary Kronk about two sightings of a fireball or reentry over Oregon around 06:15 PST confirms my prediction a couple of hours (10:00 UTC) ago about the possible reentry shortly after 14:13 UTC of 2002-053B (#27558)the Proton DM-3 stage loaded with tons of fuel- Please inform me about further observations with time informations.
