Sanbonmatsu High School(Kagawa pref.), Mr. H.Inoue(Kanagawa pref.), and Mr.SonotaCo(Tokyo) observed automatic TV cameras.

The maximum magnitude is -3 magnitudes with a smooth light curve.
The end height is 33.4 km but the observing error is rather large. The initial velocity is 14.1 km/s.
The initial mass must small but inhibitied ablation is cause of small mass loss.
