Scientific paper

I WAS just now startled by what appeared to be a vivid flash of lightning out of a perfectly cloudless sky, a fluttering flash that lit up everything brilliantly. On turning to the south-east I was just in time to see the broad path of fire that a splendid meteor had left behind it; the meteor was falling behind some trees, and I saw it very imperfectly, but it seemed very large, and indeed must have been from its light. I had been looking out from time to time for shooting stars all the evening, and had seen three fine ones and four or five small ones, all in the east, and appearing to come from the neighbourhood of the Bull. The sky is covered with the lovely light that always appears with shooting stars, and which I think is sometimes called homogeneous aurora.
