(meteorobs) Observations - Early July



Hello there everyone.

Just posting some observations (plotting) for early July

The observations were made from Heathmont in Melbourne Aust.  Seven
hours in all over three non-consecutive nights.  Sixty five meteors seen
and 54 of those plotted.  Many minor southern streams observed, so you
may not be familiar with some of the individual streams.  They all
probably form part of the Sag/Sco complex, but I have tried to weed out
the individual minor streams.  I was also monitoring activity from the
Alpha Caps stream.  The results are as follows.  Any comments welcome
please.

I also noticed after tracing back the plots quite alot of activitc
coming from a region centred on RA 20h 45m  DEC -25 in Capricorn.  8 out
of the 54 plots intersect within a 5 degree dia circle.  Just curious if
anyone else had noticed this on their plots.  I cant seem to find a
major or minor stream listed for this area at this time.

More to come when the sky clears again.
Untill then, clear skies to the rest....
