I pulled one last short Perseid session on Wednesday morning. Still fighting
a foggy head, I managed to see 100 meteors including 77 Perseids in just
over 90 minutes observing time. Just a nice morning to be under the stars,
even though I had some trouble getting myself going at the start.
As with previous nights, I already submitted the IMO electronic form.
