Above is a sample of my color chart. The profile is immediately
apparent. I would be interested in seeing similar charts for many different
observers; probably no two will be alike. Use any shower for which plenty
of data is available. Upcoming Perseids would be great.
Experienced observers already have a lot of data to use from many showers.
I get a similar profile from each shower, except green is absent from most
of the colors. And the sporadic chart is no different either. A general
letter will follow soon.
