    Bonus Meteor Shower

    For those in western North America.

    From Skyandtelescope.com:

    "No Aurigid outburst has yet been photographed (hint, hint)...
    One prediction suggests that the Aurigid shower on the morning of September 1st might be especially fireball-rich."

    OK Rickster, we expect you to be the first to capture an Aurigid outburst on film!

    Did anyone catch the Aurigid Meteor Shower?

    Apparently, it was as big as predicted.

    I wish it had been an option for those of us on the east coast.

    I'm happy to share what I think are interesting events. Astronomy is one of my many hobbies, and combining photography and astonomy is a natural.

    No biggie. That comet will be back in 2000 years.
