Orionid Meteors - What Did you see ?
Observing Reports
- Up here in the NT we saw 20 Orionids in the hour between 4:15am and 5:15am Sunday morning. About 5 of them were bright & left brief trains. All were notable for their great speed & blueish white color.It was well worth the early morning effort for a fellow club member and I, from our beachside location. Ian - ian@nightskysecrets.com
- This weekend, Fri/Sat was the only overnight I had available - and the weather lookssuspect for Sun/Mon. So I jumped out of bed at 1:30 and headed for the hills with my comfy chair and blanket, coffee and radio.From around 2:30 until sunrise I saw about a dozen meteors, most of which were definitely coming from a radiant point in Orion. A couple fairly bright. All were very fast.Stayed to watch Saturn and Venus rise, then headed for home and a few more hours sleep. I'm happy with what I saw.
