Orionid Observations?


Well, I had some nice cloudy skies for the Orionids... Did any of you get good observations of the Orionids during their peak? If so, feel free to leave comments or e-mail me. If you have any pictures or video, send them to sean@visualastronomy.com and I'll post them up on Visual Astronomy!

Clear skies!

Had a nice stretch of weather here in the Mid-Atlantic area and spent some good quality time at the scope. I saw a few really nice meteors the last couple of nights, but all of them were big, slow, and long burners coming out of the West, not Orion. Two were really BIG and Green - Beautiful!!!
So no on the Orionids, but Yes for nice meteors!!! =-)

Southern California--was disappointed on Oct 21 but this morning, 4:30am 10/23 we saw about 10. Hope the Leonids next month will be better.
