(meteorobs) IMO METEOR SUMMARY REPORT, 17/18-Nov-2000, Rachel Aubuchon




I'm submitting new observer Rachel Aubuchon's first IMO report to NAMN on
her behalf. What a fortuitous night and time for you to happen to start
reporting your meteor observations, Rachel - the 2000 Leonid outburst! :)

PS: I will repost to NAMN soon, some binned data summaries of Rachel's
observations as well - maybe binned in 10 minute intervals if possible?

Keep up the excellent work, Rachel!
Lew Gramer
