Thoughts from Starlight Cascade

The SCO Allsky2 camera/UWO camera10 captured 113 events last night (Dec 13/14, 2012)

Of those 9 were false positives (a bit of condensation inside the dome and passing car headlights)… so 113-9=104 meteors, most of which are geminids (by tracing back the path to the geminid radiant).

These two images are among the brightest meteors of the night.

There were at least two instances of two meteors in the same frame and many more brighter
meteors last night but the dimmer of the two is a little hard to make out. Maybe we will enhance them and post them later.

Allsky1 takes 90 second images and as such is much more prone to cloud effects. In fact we did not get any clear sky images fro mallsky1 until well after midnight. This is one of the best allsky1 images of the night at 03:38 EST
