Two things:
To the observer considering a trip to the Atlantic Coast for a Geminid
session. If your farm is as dark as you say, and if skies are clear there, I
wouldn't go to the ocean. I've done some observing along coastlines and have
almost always encountered a low-level haze which I presume to be due to the
nearness of a large body of water. I confess to never observing in cooler
winter months. Maybe the haze isn't there then.
Second thing:
I saw a story on CNN tonight about a large crater found in Australia that
appears to have been made by an object hitting the earth at a 45 degree
angle. Police are investigating and the public is being kept from the sight.
They mentioned the possibility of a meteor impact. Does anyone on the list
know more about this incident?
