Caption: Figure 2.

Idealized diagram, not drawn to scale and intended only as a rough conceptual representation, illustrates how a bolide’s fragmentation behavior affects the resulting light curve. The left column shows four conceptual light curves, from a single-peaked airburst to continuous multipoint fragmentation, while the right panels depict how different geometry scenarios might look for steep vs. shallow entries.
