(meteorobs) Meteors, natural and otherwise

[Chris Peterson]

Lots of video activity lately. Last night (Colorado, UT 2007.10.20 
00:00 - 12:00) had a nice collection:

epsilon Geminid   EGE   6
Orionid   ORI   49
Leo Minorid   LMI   5
S Taurid   STA   6
N Taurid   NTA   12
Sporadic   SPO   15

Total events: 93

One of those sporadics appears to have been a decaying rocket body.

Unfortunately, snow is falling on my camera tonight, so I guess I'll 
miss the rest of the Orionids.
