(meteorobs) AKM Video Observation Results December 2002
Results of the AKM Video Meteor Network - December 2002
=======================================================
In December, central Europe suffered from the usual poor winter weather with
no snow but mostly clouded skies. At least in the week of the Geminid maximum
skies cleared for a few nights, resulting in acceptabable observing times and
meteor counts in the last month of 2002. The second half of December was almost
a complete miss, which was not due to lack of motivation of the observers over
Christmas.
Interesting to note in December is the fact, that the Mintron camera of
Joerg Strunk is almost as effective as the image intensified cameras at times
of major showers with low population indices.
Detailed summaries and statistics for 2002 will follow later.
