Get Windows Media Player 7    July 2004 Meteors 
July 23 04 5:38am Another nice meteor - A persistent trail visible in the after the meteor burnt itself out in video play back. Video file available July 23 04 04:03 am A  'tadpole-shaped' meteor wiggling up and disappearing into the clouds upper right. DV AVI file available.
 July xx (top) : Twin meteors at Grus - can you tell which direction was the brighter meteor pointing from?  Hint : Observe  end points of the meteor - most of the time the terminating  point is brighter  than the starting point.  
Jul 01_04 02:10am (above)  : A slow meteor near Capricornus/Microscopium border.  Watch the video (350Kb) here. Jul 01_04 : Similar FOV but 10+ minutes later a swift meteor transverse the star field.
 Jul 12 04 11:33:46 pm- A slow CAP appeared in the 'sting' of the scorpion.  The 2- minute exposure blurred the clouds Video analysis revealed a 19 frames (=0.76s) flight duration ( x16 seen here).  To get to the bottom of the breaks in meteor track, i manually select the meteor bitmap sequences and stacked in photoshop 7 using copy> pasted layer>lighten  intentionally leaving one bitmap out ( creating a single break above ).
