(meteorobs) Re: Sorry...amateur's OOT...
Octavian and All,
From Indonesia, your best rates would occur in the last dark hour
before dawn on Tuesday August 13. The rates will not be impressive from
your location as the Perseid radiant will not rise very high in your
tropical sky. You do have the chance of seeing some impressive
"earthgrazers" when the radiant lies close to the horizon during the
early morning hours.
Best of Luck!
