The following is a list of bolides seen on Earth in recent times, sourced from http://neo.jpl.nasa.gov/fireballs/ and [http://www.amsmeteors.org/members/imo_view/browse_events? http://www.amsmeteors.org/members/imo_view/browse_events?] (starting from March 1). Meteors with a recorded absolute magnitude are then converted to an absolute magnitude under (Ma = Mm + 31) and then converted to a diameter assuming that meteors brighten by approximate 10 magnitudes when entering the atmosphere.

The fourth and third to last parameters are calculated personally from http://convertalot.com/asteroid_impact_calculator.html, assuming a density of 1 g/cm^3, an impact angle of 45°, and a velocity of 17 km/s (if not provided). The actual values for both may vary by as much as the value itself, so remember that these values are only estimates. The last two values are based on the number of reports submitted to http://www.amsmeteors.org

The bolide on 2015/09/07 is the 2015 Thailand bolide, and the bolide on 2015/02/26 May be related to the 2015 Kerala meteorite.
