[meteorite-list] Perseid Meteor Shower Intensifies

[Jim Wooddell]

Hi All!

Hi All!
The Parker, AZ Sky Sentinel Allsky cam captured 51 events last night 
(8/12 UTC).
I stacked all 51 captures into one image and posted it on my FB page as 
well
as here: http://pages.suddenlink.net/chondrule/8_12.jpg .
I've been stacking daily beginning 7/31 and will go a few more days and 
create
a final image for the entire period.  I think collectively, last night 
was as busy as
all the previous nights combined!
Enjoy!
Jim Wooddell
