(meteorobs) LATE Fwd: NASA Science News "Leonids Around the Clock"




One curious question after the fact: Did this "spreading around the globe"
by NASA observers include any observing stations in Asia? I had not heard
of any, but perhaps some of the well known observers who reported during
that weekend from Korea, Japan, Taiwan or other sites were actually also
a part of this NASA effort?

Clear skies,

NASA Science News for November 15, 2001

Experts agree: a meteor storm will erupt somewhere on Earth this weekend.
But where? when? and how big will it be?  Forecasts differ on these basic
points.  To discover which predictions are correct, a NASA-led team of 
astronomers will spread around the globe  to monitor the 2001 Leonid
meteor
shower. Catch their reports live on the web!
