(meteorobs) Excerpt from "CCNet DIGEST, 4 November 1998"


Kudos to S&T for their fine meteor site. In addition, keep the
"standard list" of other Leonids Web URLs handy...

Benny...
 
With the Leonid shower just two weeks away, many CCN'ers will likely 
be asked for interviews by various reporters. Since news outlets 
invariably crave (demand?) visuals, you might direct them to the 
meteor section of SKY & TELESCOPE's Web site 
(http://www.skypub.com/meteors/meteors.shtml). Aside from numerous 
articles and "how-to" tutorials, we have available for distribution 
some dramatic still images from the 1966 storm, artistic 
renederings, nice video footage of the 1997 Perseids and Geminids, 
and a broadcast-quality, 1-minute animation of why the Leonids 
"happen" by artist Don Davis. Anyone wanting these for reproduction 
or broadcast can contact Irene Szewczuk (irenes@skypub.com, 
617-864-7360 x127) or me (kbeatty@skypub.com, x148). Our fax is 
617-576-0336.
