(meteorobs) 2012 DA14 and its possible related meteor shower

[Roberto G.]

Perharps for peoples living unders southern skys it shall be a surprise in
the next days.

Asteroid 2012 DA14 shall pass at around 30,000 km from Earth surface
the February 15th 2013 and it's certainly a fragment of a biggest body that
break up in the past, in this process certainly minor fragments were born
creating perharps a meteor shower, if this it's correct that are the
elements of this new meteor shower:

Radiant

Asc. 148.4-148.8 ( 09 H 54/55 M)         Decl.    -81.3°

it's a point between Zheta and Mu of Chamaeleon constellation

Vg   6.14 km/sec (very slow)       Vh   28.66 km/sec

Solar Long. 327°         date of maximum  15.7 February 2013

D (MOID)    0.000 (or 0.001)

Probably it shall be only a low ZHR of very slow meteors, so slow
that it's possible if the meteoroids are big that meteorites fall on the 
Earth.

All this it's not sure then if it's possible for you see the sky during 
14-15
February and 15-16 February you shall can confirm or not that.
Best greetings.
