(meteorobs) RE: [ASTRO] My Leonids night-out plan



You do realize that if you want to watch Leonid meteors you SHOULD NOT be 
using a telescope, and for every second you spend at the eyepiece, you will 
be missing a chance to see meteors in the other 99.99% of the sky?

Subject: 	[ASTRO] My Leonids night-out plan

I'm planning on spending my night out during the
Leonids meteor shower. I won't miss a minute of
darkness and will stay up till early morning. I won't
go of course to school the next day.

I will also be using my 90mm Altazimoth Meade
Telescope, which I'm supposed to get in a week or two.
My classmate friend will be bringing his telescope,
and I'll try bringing all of my classmates. I might
try getting someone with a 10" LX200 telescope. That
would be kind of a Star Party! I'll be updating.
