Jan 22 '05 3:30-6:00 am ( Crux - Pointer Region)- Extracted sequence of 3- minute video stills. Crux rising above the low elevation cloud level. Two meteors left short streaks above the Pointers sharing close end points. The first frame contained two meteors as well - one right inside the Crux and the other in the slant lines of stars close to NGC 3766. Yet another one on the extreme top right edge. | ||

Fireball (~ -4 mag) Jan 30 '05 5:50am detected ( Fov centre : Elev 61degree, Azm 197degree. Using meteor catcher setup (see first image). This is my first bright 'catch' for the year. Close interspacing of the dashes indicate a very slow meteor indeed. (~ 0.6 sec in duration) | ||
