(meteorobs) Perseid pic from space

[Wayne Hally]

It's not a meteor storm, it's a shower.

 

The particle density during the peak may have been as high as 62 per billion
cubic kilometers. That includes objects the size of smoke particles.

 

The risk from satellite debris is far higher than that of the Perseids for
the ISS, by many orders of magnitude.

I can't stand it.
Have you critically thought about this.

Space station
Meteor storm.
Looks cool.
What's that hissing sound.

I guess I'm a worrier.
