The 1913 meteor procession

Fireballs crossed the sky as a procession on 9 February 1913, seen from Canada, the north-eastern United States, Bermuda and ships heading toward Brazil.

Wikipedia records that on 9 February 1913 a meteor display was reported across Canada, the north-eastern United States and Bermuda, and by ships reaching south to Brazil. It puts the total recorded ground track at more than 11,000 km, about 7,000 miles.

Astronomy magazine says the fireballs crossed the sky in a group, moving at a stately, measured pace, level with the horizon. Meteors usually seem to spread out from one point in the sky, called a radiant. Wikipedia says these had no apparent radiant, which made them unusual.

Scientific American reports that the procession made newspaper headlines across the north-east and led to a painting by the Canadian astronomer Gustav Hahn. Donald Olson of Texas State University, who calls himself a forensic astronomer, and Steve Hutcheon of the Astronomical Association of Queensland later wrote up an analysis of the historical accounts in Sky and Telescope. Live Science reported in 2013 that their sifting of archival records pieced together the path, which turned out larger than expected.
