(meteorobs) 2005 Draconids

[Jeremie VAUBAILLON]

Hello you all,

As many people are wondering about the 2005 Draconids, here are the 
results of our work:

http://www.imcce.fr/page.php?nav=en/ephemerides/phenomenes/meteor/DRA/2005DRA.php

As you can see, there are lots of particles in the vicinity of the 
Earth, because of the return of comet 21P/Gicaobini-Zinner. However, the 
Earth itself will not pass through a particular stream.

So yes, there will be a Draconids activity, but no, we do not expect a 
storm.

Anyway, thanks a lot to the observers: we never know....

Jeremie Vaubaillon
