[meteorite-list] Meteor in flightGreetings, I was looking through my big scope a couple of nights ago at the Whirlpool Galaxy (also called M51) in the handle of the Big Dipper. As I was looking, a meteor went through the field of view (rather quickly). I could see the vapor of the meteor as it was burning up and some filaments extending out from the trail as it was slowing. There was a lot of detail. A pretty impressive sight through the eyepiece of the telescope. It certainly topped the jumbo jet I saw going through the field of view one time. --AL Mitterling Mitterling Meteorites I plan to put out a list very soon of some items I am wanting to sell. Stay tuned Best! -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL: <https://pairlist2.pair.net/pipermail/meteorite-list/attachments/20230916/f91f79af/attachment.htm> |
