Re: (meteorobs) Perseids from Turkey




bob>>night of Aug. 12, in Istanbul.  I probably view it from within city
(wish I could get away into the country).<<

I've only been in Istanbul twice...for about an hour each time...coming and 
going as we landed and took off. From the air it did look quite interesting. 

 bob>>Thanks for the info.  I will be with a scientific group in SE Turkey
(East Anatolia).  I wanted to get a rental car, explore & find a scenic
site, & camp-out, but people told me this was too dangerous.  (there was
a suicide-attack involving machine-guns & grenade in the city I'll be
staying at).  I'll probably hang around the site during sunrise & sunset
the days before the eclipse Aug. 8,9,10 (have to go back to the city for
the hotel, unfortunately)<<

I haven't been to the SE area of Turkey...but I know that you should take 
precautions and heed any warnings for that area. What kind of scientific 
group are you with? Good luck.
