After reading the entire thread, I'd have to agree with your
assessment Rob. Chris (the astrophotographer) seems very defensive
when offered possible alternative explanations (like a slew off a
focus star with shutter open) for his interpreted meteor. Meteors
I've seen captured photographically look nothing like that which was
taken by Chris.

Stuart's posts have been rational, polite, helpful and (most
importantly)
correct. I'm afraid the same cannot be said of many of Chris's
counterposts.

Australian astro photographer says he snapped a pic of a meteor
through his telescope. Its a 4 page thread so far, seems its up for
debate. Imagine that. What do you guys think?
