AB A continuous monitoring of the night sky all over Spain will be completed in 2009. This involves the recording over avery large surface area of 500,000 km2, but new CCD and video cameras operated by the Spanish Meteor and FireballNetwork (SPMN) allows this target to be achieved. Through the use of these new techniques the SPMN can obtain newinformation regarding the dynamical processes that deliver meteorites to the Earth. It transpires that the main asteroidbelt is not the only source of these fireballs, Near Earth Objects (NEOs) and Jupiter Family Comets (JFCs) may alsoplay a role. To obtain more information in this regard, new efforts are needed to compare the orbits of large meteoroidsreaching the Earth with those of the members of NEO and JFC populations. By numerically integrating their orbits backin time it may be possible to identify meteoroids delivered by other mechanisms like such as catastrophic disruptions orcollisions.
