Re: (meteorobs) curving meteors?



I saw my first `curved' telescopic meteor during my Geminid watch on
December 14.  What I think I saw was a fast +10 meteor end in the field
near where a medium-fast +9 started, but the brain interpreted it
(rememeber I'm using 19.5x magnification) as a single event.  The
orientation of the +9 was about 100 degrees.  So the curved meteor
had a Nike-like tick path.
