(meteorobs)Lyrids--Diffuse Radiant?
Hi everyone,
Just wondering if the Lyrids are associated with a diffuse radiant?
I observed for short periods on the three nights prior to maximum. During
these observing sessions I did not plot any meteors although now I wished I
did.
On one evening, I remember seeing a Lyrid with a short flight of only about
1 degree come directly from the radiant whose coordinates are listed on the
NAMN meteor shower list. On another evening, I distinctly remember seeing a
Lyrid meteor bisect the constellation Lyra vertically through the
equillateral triangle and parallelogram portions of the constellation Lyra.
Clear Skies,
Mark Mikutis
