(meteorobs) Just joined the list. Hello to all.
Hi everyone,
Just saying a quick hello to you all from Adelaide,
South Australia. Just a quick background info, I have been interested in
Astronomy for quite some time now and my main love is observing comets and
meteor shows. I often find myself looking up when I go outside hoping a really
nice meteor streaks across the sky. Since November 16th, 1998 I have become more
interested in the Leonid meteor shower, to tell you the truth, I hardly knew
anything about it, and it wasn't until 1998 that I had actually observed the
shower. Since then I have every year gone out to watch it, with mixed results.
By far the best display was in 1998 with very nice meteors streaking overhead
with very long trains which were visible for quite some time afterwards. I will
always remember this.
Anyway looking forward to this next week with the
Leonids returning again.
regards
Andrew Wall
