Abstract
We observed the recent Leonid meteor storm with CCD in 1998 and 1999. The high spatial resolution light curves extracted from the two-dimensional images of the bright Leonid meteors clearly show in-flight fragmentation of these meteors, which is the first direct evidence supporting the dustball meteor model.
