(meteorobs) Obs. LANMA 1-2 June 2000
Hello,
Last night I made a short observational session, seeking some relaxation
after last two intense weeks. Table with data below. Sky quality was
reasonable although not superb. The sky background remained a bit bright due
to the eternal twilight we experience at 52 degrees N during our very short
June nights.
After about one hour, fatigue of the last two weeks hit me and my attention
started to wander away from meteors, so I quit, a bit early perhaps.
Still, a nice session delivering me 11 meteors in 0.97h effective time. All
were plotted. Best meteor was a nice +1 omega Scorpiid in Hercules at 23:00
UT. A nice +3 gamma Sagittarid appeared at 23:21 UT, also in Hercules, and
had that particular "fuzzy ball" appearance. I have no tau Herculids among
my plottings.
