Margret I'm trying to find the approximate date and time of the next meteor shower. Can't find that information. I'm aware of the good one in August, but before then? TIA C88 |

TIA The RASC _Observer's Handbook_ shows no more likely displays until the South Delta-Aquarids on July 28, followed by the Perseids August 12 -- probably the "good one" you're thinking of. (There are three showers listed for June, but their radiants are only above the horizon during the day: the Arietids on the 9th, the Zeta Perseids on the 14th, and the Beta Taurids on the 30th.) -- Odysseus |

oups.com What happend? Hi Twittering One (can I call you Twittering?) ! I'm not sure I know what you mean by "What happened?" except maybe you're talking about the way that thread on that other newsgroup just disappeared?(don't remember which ng now- but it's one of those ng's that is sometimes listed up there^ in the "Newsgroups" field. That thread had my 2 posts in it, and it just vanished from my newsreader when I wasn't looking. The only way that can happen, I believe, is if the person who started the thread canceled the first post of a thread, taking replies with it. But I'm not sure about that. I suppose it could be tested to find out. Anyway, I hope you're having more fun than a barrel of monkeys riding atop a gaggle of geese -- er -- hi Folly Wally! This hiker I know is loaning me his wild game watching binocs, to view the meteor showers coming up. They are huge! Something like 10x80s or 20x80s- I forget. But bright- good for stargazin'. Over and out- 4 now... C88 |
