(meteorobs) Orionids Obs. on Oct. 24.



Dear everyone,

We held a observation meeting in SHINNSYU(around NAGANO pref.) on Oct.
24 once a year.  About 20 observer took part in the metting and observed
togather.  I observed Orionids by counting.  It was very fine night and
clear sky.  Though Orionids maximum has past before three days, its
activity kept about HR=10 and was comparatively high.  On the contrary,
Taurids was already low activity.  I confirmed Epsilon Geminid activity,
but October Leo Minorids could not find.
