Recent Observations: September 2001
The number of observations we received went down during the month of
September. Our thanks go to the following eight observers who were able to
take some time out and devote to meteor observing:
Dustin Brown, USA
George Gliba, USA
Rosely Gregio, Brazil
Robert Lunsford, USA
Pierre Martin, Canada
Huan Meng, China
Wes Stone, USA
Harry Waldron, USA
The August observation of Dustin Brown, with 10 Perseids recorded, was
unfortunately omitted from our report last month so is included here. The
final totals for September alone included 18.56 hours of observations during
7 different nights. Shower totals included:
