Hello list,
The past few days, I noticed that the Canadian Meteor Orbit Radar at http://fireballs.ndc.nasa.gov is showing an active radiant just north of Cassiopeia with the three letter code "PCA". The plotted meteors appear to be medium-fast velocity, and the radiant seems very wide.
Does anyone know what this shower is?
Bob Lunsford's Meteor Activity Outlook does not make any mention about this radiant.
I am wondering if some of the early Perseids seen in July actually belong to this shower?
Any insight would be appreciated :)
Clear skies!
Pierre
