(meteorobs) June Bootids/Beta Taurids



Hi -- Yesterday a reliable radio meteor observer in New Mexico reported to
me that he had observed 46 pings per hour during the early morning hours of
June 27.  It impossible to say whether he detected June Bootids or Beta
Taurids, as both radiants were just above his horizon at the time.  I've
written a quick NASA Science News story to alert radio observers to the
possibility that activity might still be ongoing.  It's at:

As always, comments and corrections are welcome.
