Cinnamon Posted August 10, 2007 Share Posted August 10, 2007 Just read in the paper that there is going to be a pretty spectacular meteor shower on Sunday night at about 11pm, through to Monday 2am. There will be a peak of 60-100 meteors per hour, which sounds like it will look amazing! You need to look towards the Eastern sky,& hope for a dry clear night, which is forecast Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dogmother Posted August 12, 2007 Share Posted August 12, 2007 I remember the triffids too... scary. Went out last night to look for meteors, drove out into the fields, rolled back the long sunroof on the van and lay on the back seat watching for them... not many last night, but I hope to see more tonight.

Martin B Posted August 12, 2007 Share Posted August 12, 2007 Wow the shower has certainly kicked off in style! We've seen 8 or 9 already and an absolutely huge one, that even impressed my brother. I was telling him I could see them and he was calling me a liar, then a huge one flew right across the sky! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
