(meteorobs) Geminids Dec. 14/15, 2001





     I was able to get a couple hours of post maximum Geminid meteor shower
observations in last night. Activity was lower than expected, but 17 Geminids 
were seen from 3:15 to 5:15 UT from Greenbelt, Maryland. Below is a short
summary. There were a few clouds the first hour, but none the second hour.
The best Geminid was a -1 magn. one seen low in the SE at 04:25 UT.
