In the early hours of March 22, at 1:05:16 AM Coordinated Universal Time (2:05 AM Central European Time), a spectacular celestial event illuminated the skies over Castellon and Tarragona, outshining even the moon. Captured by keen-eyed observers, including Vicent Ibanez from Benicassim and Cesar Guasch from Sant Mateu, the phenomenon left witnesses in awe.

Vicent Ibanez's footage from Benicassim showcased the luminous spectacle resembling a bright bolide, while Cesar Guasch's recording from Sant Mateu provided a unique perspective with an allsky camera, albeit with a slight temporal gap in the imagery. Miguel Aznar, stationed southeast of Blesa in Teruel, also documented the breathtaking meteor event, offering a glimpse of its emergence from the radiant in Virgo.

The Spanish Network for Meteorite Investigation (SPMN), in collaboration with the Spanish National Research Council (CSIC), shared these remarkable sightings, underscoring the scientific value of such observations. Additionally, German Edo from Fanzara contributed to the records with a captivating video capturing the characteristic blue hue associated with silicate ablation.
