AT 9.55 p.m. on Sunday, January 27, I saw a meteor start from a point in Taurus, near to Saturn, and fall vertically a distance of 20°, and then burst with a brilliant flash, giving off several colours that almost instantaneously died away. The meteor was visible about three seconds, and increased greatly in brightness from the time first seen until it burst. It was the most brilliant meteor I ever saw, and its greatest brightness much exceeded that of Venus.
