Shooting star bonanza!

Post by Prebe »

The earth will make it's annual pas through the meteor swarm The Perseides. Meaning that we should be able to see up to one spark pr. minute between 2300 and 0200 hours gmt on the night from sunday to monday.

Hope it's clear by You Loremaster. We have been promissed a clear sky and a new moon, which should be excellent!

I was reading that this year it will be possible to see the greatest number of shooting stars on August 12, rather than August 10, due to the drifting of the cosmic dust clouds...
