Dear Orrin and List: Thank you for the report from a neighbor here in Arizona.
We had a wonderful show last night over Tucson. I spotted my first Geminid at about 7:30 pm, and checked back periodically, later in the night. The skies were very clear and after 12:30 am, once the Moon had set, we were counting ~65 per hour. Most were faint but about 1 in 10 meteors were quite spectacular, with long, bright trails.
Easily the best Geminids shower I've ever seen. Hoping for a few more tonight.
Regards from Tucson, Geoff N. www.aerolite.org www.meteoritemen.com ______________________________________________ Visit the Archives at http://www.meteoritecentral.com/mailing-list-archives.html Meteorite-list mailing list [email protected] http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list
