Hi all,

i just spotted by chance the 2nd "fireball" / bright meteor in my life ;)  at 20:52 CET , dark orange with bright grey trail, no sound, east-northeast to east southeast, elevation 10-20 degrees ... 

Yay  ! Unfortunately , no picture, just human observation while taking the dog out .

PS.: might have been a "november orionid", they peaked yesterday.

      Geminids from 12 December 2020
      By Stargazer33
      Short .gif from a .ser video, captured last night (12th) with my ASI385MC and the supplied all-sky-lens.
      We had a lovely clear night last night. The best we've had in ages. The battery died on my old laptop - probably due to the sub zero temperature - so only managed a few 5 minute videos. I saw lots more before I decided to set up the camera. 
      Tonight; peak; is completely clouded out! Surprise, surprise!!

       
      I also had my Mother-in-laws dog as a stargazing companion/hot water bottle.  Excuse the finger in the shot, my wife is a bit of a technophobe!

      Mapping Radio Meteor Altitudes for GRAVES.
      By johnb
      Hi
      Some of you may be aware of the Radio Meteor Detection collaboration Project which is a group of contributors who submit their monthly log files after which do a number of things with the data see here for more info: https://radiometeordetection.org/about
      Our latest exciting project is to see if we can successfully match Radio and Video events to aid our understanding of meteor phenomena, so we are now starting to Map Radio Meteor Altitudes for GRAVES.
      The attached PDF gives a full description of this project
      The project brief and maps can be found here: https://radiometeordetection.org
      If you want any more information or feel you can help in any way, please do get in touch
      Kind Regards

      Query regarding visual astronomy.
      By Harmann Multani
      Hi,
      If one has a largescope like a Celestron EdgeHD 14" or a Meade LX200 14", can it be used for visual astronomy other than astrophotography?

      Bright meteor seen
      By Tomatobro
      From a site near Shrewsbury a very bright meteor was seen at 21:59 (30/07/2020) which left a smoke trail still visible after 35 minutes. It covered two thirds of the visible sky and its track was in the western horizon .
