Thank you, Dan. Haven't seen that before via the MK cameras before, certainly never with the naked eye. Quite a show, albeit brief.
PS. Unfortunately the link is to a movie that updates in real time, so The sprites were visible earlier, but no longer. I'll see if the CFHT have an archived movie.

Dan,
I've worked at UKIRT for the last 19 years and have observed there since 1991. I know Andrew online, haven't had the fortune to meet him in person yet, but bet I'd know his face (and he'd know mine). We've interacted a lot via email over the last few years. In fact both you and I have commented together on one or two of his blog posts recently!
Tom
