This dataset contains video observations by some stations of the Global Meteor Network of the re-entry of the Crew-5 dragon trunk above Arizona on 2023-04-27 around 08:52 UTC. There are several types of files: FF files: these are 10.24 second videos compressed in the four-frame format. They are just FITS files with four frames, containing per pixel 1) the maximum value over 256 frames 2) the frame nr (between 0 and 255) where the maximum occurred 3) the mean value of all 256 frames and 4) the RMS of the 256 values. FR files: compressed video recordings of detected fireballs. These can be read with the RMS software. MP4 files: rendered movies of combined FF and FR files for one station (more can be made with FR_binviewer from RMS software). Platepar-files: these contain astrometry corresponding to the FITS files. These can be interpreted by the RMS software. ECSV files: these contain manually picked points (with SkyFit2.py from RMS) along the track of the reentry. For each point, time and apparent coordinates are recorded. These files can be interpreted by the WesternMeteorPyLib trajectory solver. trajectory-points.txt: solutions from the trajectory solver. reentry-map-v4.png: a rendered map of the trajectory (made in QGIS). compilation.png: rendered version of the FF-files of most stations. The files can be processed with the software in https://github.com/CroatianMeteorNetwork/RMS and https://github.com/wmpg/WesternMeteorPyLib.
