'Well, I'm not sure if I'm dedicated or just stupid :) 
Still, there is something satisfying about knowing that at that moment I 
was probably the only person in the world watching for meteors. And I was 
really rewarded with the two Sporadics at the end'

 

Hi Wayne, folks on meteorobs,

 

Dedicated is the right word; 'stupid' is the word for brainless outstanders..Perhaps good for them, but I feel great when I am watching the dark night skies and catching some shooting stars. No matter how much or on what moment...

 

After the Lyrids, the weather became bad after a long and way to early summer period. For the moment: May is filled with the absence of clear nights, almost all days rainfall, thunderstorms and windy conditions..That's living in the neighbourhoods of the cold North see and the Atlantic ocean..

 

If we enjoyed the same conditions as during April, I assure you, you were not alone watching those dark skies for some spare shooting stars....

 

Long trains,

 

Michel
