Hi
Will it be possible to see decent numbers of Perseids tonight? It's clear skies for once here but I know it's past the maximum. Phil |

Even at the peak I only saw about a dozen in the hour and a half I was looking (23:30 - 1:00). I was out a few nights before the peak and saw about half a dozen. Don't forget that even when there are no showers publicised, there are still a fair number of ordinary meteors you can see - just not so many. The best ones I've seen have been from times when there wasn't a proper shower and when I was looking at other things. -- www.thisreallyismyhost.99k.org/page1.php |
