(meteorobs) Orionids from Belgium

[Michel Vandeputte]

Hi folks on meteorobs, 

 

I added my 2007 Orionid results on the IMO's Orionid 'ZHR on fly'. 

You can find my data on the website of the International Meteor Organisation. 

I was lucky to observe the Orionid meteor shower during all maximum nights; this is quite unusual for Belgian climatologically criteria. Only for the main maximum night I went to eastern Holland to observe the Orionids from Lattrop together with my fellow meteor observers from the Dutch Meteor Society. ZHR rates touched nearly 100 meteors/ hour during the first hour. This is confirmed by the other observers.
