Weekend meteor shower to be best in years

[jutka]

I hope to see the meteor showers, but I can't stay up too late anymore -- got work and too much homework.

It would be nice to have binoculars but meteorites move too fast for binocs. I have seen Meteorites that lit up the whole sky. It gives you a scarey feeling. It is something to see.

We are going to Radio City to see the Rocketts,$138 for two tickets. I will pretend that I am not intrested in the dancers legs.

According to NASA Australia and the South Pacific actually get the best show this year, I plan to spend my Mon night Tues morning freezing my silly petard off under the stars. Where did you get your report from by the way? butterfly...

It wasn't clear who you were asking, if it's me, I got it from somewhere at http://naturalscience.com/ns/nshome.html

Just in case anyone wonders what time to see meteor shower in area of Texas-it is supposed to peak around 4am and you will not need binoculars!

After a night of partying and dancing I got up at 4am and watched the meteorite show.
Meteors came from all directions in all parts of the sky; most were white and left no after light, while some were red and some seemed to have a kind of radiation that lit the sky around them; sometimes the streak remained for a split second after the meteor passed.
But to my displeasure none were very large. I have seen meteors that lit up the sky like the moon.
