(meteorobs) Re: Cetids
Well Lew,
Telescopic observations would certainly be more precise! One would think
that telescopic observers would feast on this complex as the combined
rates are better than normal.
Visual plots, while less accurate, can cover a much larger portion of
the sky. What we certainly need is more people using both of these
methods to help us understand the complexities of
Taurid/Arietid/Cetid/Piscid radiants.
