(meteorobs) June Lyrids
[I reformated the below report as best I could for email viewing. -Lew Gramer]
Hi everyone,
My observational results of last night (15/16-6) ;
I watched for 2 hours (22.20-00.20 UT).
We had clear skies in Belgium after a cold front passed the country.
In the first hour I saw 5 meteors.One was a nice magnitude +3 June Lyrid which
appeared in Cygnus.
He came out of the Xi draconids radiant (279=B0 - +55=B0). Besides I counted
also 4 faint sporadic meteors. One was a fast northern apex sporadic with a
small persistant train.
In the second hour there was more activity from the June Lyrids. I plotted 3
members: two that belongs to the June Lyrid radiant (279o +35o) and one from
the Xi Draconids radiant.
Unfortunately clouds moved in after 00.20 UT.
