Even though the city had some moderate light pollution, I was able to spot a big meteor every ten minutes from the same dark spot in the park where I made my watch yesterday (the spot with the least light). The first meteor I saw came out at around 10:20 p.m. It was gigantic!!! It had a large, beautiful white tail, and it disappeared as quickly as it showed up. Truly a sight to behold.
Most of the meteors I observed originated from the Northeast, and flew to the Southwest. The path of the meteor varied (NE to SW, or directly NW to SE, etc) but they all came from the north to the south. I had to move to different places, though...the sprinklers came on and one of them almost wet me. Either way, the meteors kept going. Overall, it was very cool!!! Can't wait for the next meteor shower!!!! 
| | | Vaillant 3.0 wrote: | | De nada!!
So the meteors reveal themselves, eh? Cool!! 
It's only 8 pm here, but it's looking to be a nice moonless night here as well. Hopefully the meteor shower still has enough steam to give California a good show. Glad you liked the spectacle!
Now, off I go to search for those shooting stars. I'll be back.
| | | guidogodoy wrote: | | Wow! Tonight was certainly the meteor shower night! Saw some 5-6 really good ones! Started directly overhead N to S at the beginning of the dogwalk and down to 45 degrees (still N/W - S/W) by the end. No moon, very clear skies with little to no light contamination. Last one burned out with a big yellow fireball leaving a white streak in its wake. KEWL!! (10pm central, FYI).
Happy searching all who care and thanks again for keeping me informed, Vail. |

LOL that certainly would make the drive less boring. I did see a meteor/comet/whatever at hockey practice a few weeks ago, I must have looked a right goober standing there staring, literally, in to space, LOL!

The moon and the haze from nearby wildfires made it difficult to see anything to the East. Had to go back home at around 12:45 since I had to get up early for work.
The meteor shower will happen again tonight. I'll give it one more chance to impress me.

I am now going to have to stare at the floor for an hour to get my spine back into shape.
