a

The near solutions for the 19 January and 11 February events were ruled out as possibilities by Leonard et al. (2020) based on higher‐fidelity OD analysis enabled by three or more observations (see section 4).

b

Slower particles were observed in later images that are not included in this analysis.

c

Particles were observed up to the edge of the image fields of view, meaning that if there were any faster particles, they would not have been observed.
