(meteorobs) Minor shower activity around Taurus.
Dear Robert,
As I'm interested in this shower, I found my observation chart on August
31/1. Two meteors, which I think it belonging to this shower, crossed
about RA=70, Dec=+5. On the other hand, I also found two meteors coming
>from around the radiant of RA=69, Dec=+21. I seem that these two meteors
crossed about RA=67, Dec=+15.(one is the same meteor of the former) I try
to search for the NMS radiant database as following condition.
Condition : 1928 - 1998,8/25 - 9/7,RA=60 - 90,Dec=-10 - 30
