 I don't think so. If I have Orion in the field of view and a meteor goes
from Alpha to Beta as seen with the naked eye then it will be on that
film in the same spot.

 We always know were the meteor goes through the field. There was no
way we should have missed that one.

 Of course now the weather is not looking promising so I'll have LOTS
of film left...

Oh...would leaving the film in the fridge in the egg try area make it more
sensitive?
