Hello Jessica and List, The stars can be seen here but the sky is hazy, a lot of humidity (79%) up in the atmosphere. Nevertheless, I managed to "catch" three Perseids, all of them very fast (as usual) and with much thinner streaks than last night: 1) Saturday 01: 09 CEDST Perseid N(E) -> S(W) through Cygnus and past the western part of Aquila 2) Saturday 01: 26 CEDST Perseid with a short, stubby trail though far enough away from the radiant maybe it was a "sporadic meteor" 3) Saturday 01: 36 CEDST - another swift Perseid with a thin, short, luminous trail Best wishes from Germany, Bernd ______________________________________________ Visit the Archives at http://www.meteoritecentral.com/mailing-list-archives.html Meteorite-list mailing list Meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list
