Hi !!

> where would one find these night goggles?

I would tend to think you could get these at hunting/sports stores or 
army supply stores.

But I may have missed the thread, if so, bare with me.

To use the night vision goggles, there would have to be heat involved 
in order to see the meteor correct? Or am I thinking of infra red 
goggles.

What would the only advantage be, less stray light? Would you 
actually pick up more meteors since the stray light is cut down?

Do these glasses not cut off some of your peripheral vision? 

Kim
