(meteorobs) Sept. 11 Observations



-- [ From: Robert Lunsford * EMC.Ver #2.5.1 ] --

Things were a little more active tonight as I counted 54 meteors in 4
hours. Once again the Delta Aurigids were the dominant shower producing
7 meteors. Activity from Triangulum was down to 1 meteor (the last one
seen at 12:28 UT). Activity from Aries picked up slightly as 3 meteors
were seen from that radiant. No activity from the Southern Piscids were
seen probably due to the later start.
Several meteors were also seen from possible radiants near Capella and
central Taurus. A very slender crescent moon was seen rising in the east
while driving home.
