Popis: One of the aims of the SPanish Meteor Network (SPMN) is the recovery and analysis of meteorites. So, we focus special attention on very bright fireballs, as under appropriate conditions these unusual events may give rise to meteorite falls. For this purpose we operate 25 meteor observing stations that monitor the night sky over Spain and neighbouring areas. These provide useful data for the determination of radiant, orbital, photometric and chemical parameters [1, 2, 3]. In this context, we present here the first results of the analysis of a superbolide observed over the Iberian Peninsula on July 13, 2012.
