Leonids, November 19th 2002 |
|
|
|
The leonid meteor shower of 2002 was a burn out relative to 2001, due to 1) the full moon 2) high thin clouds and 3) a much lower observed meteor rate and 4) virtually no bollides. However, I did manage to get the camera trailed on leo around 5:30am on the morning of Nov 19th. |

I captured this one meteorite streaking across Leo. As it has been pointed out to me, this is not technically a leonid as it is not eminating from the sickle, but in my book, it's close enough! This was a three minute exposure on Kodak LE400 through a 50mm lens |
