David Asher of the Armagh Observatory is a little more cautious stating that with no meteor storm data in relatively recent times predictions cannot be calibrated to the same accuracy as the Leonid meteors. ...

... These are ``quirks'' rather than ``bugs''. Below is a list of quirks. When loading a file and ``Reset Intensity Upon File Load'' is disabled, the intensity range of the previous image will be used. ... When moving between two images (such as when blinking, or when loading a new image), the display system attempts to retain the old image parameters (i.e. zoom box). What is retained are the corners of the zoom box measured in image pixel co-ordinates, not world co-ordinates. ...

... Actual stars are expected to be more complicated than these simulations. ... The spot may be entirely visible most of the time (one would observe a prolonged flux minimum low), and then part of it may disappear over the horizon briefly and then return (slow rise and then fall back to constant level). ... With the set of observations taken here, I have information available from several comparison stars and color information. ... The period found must be consistent with the data from any given night....

... The hotter the gas, the faster they move, and the more energy each of them holds. The free ions and electrons in a plasma behave the same way. Knowing the temperature of the high atmosphere of Earth, or that of the Sun, we can calculate energies expected of ions and electrons found there. However, ions and electrons actually observed in space are often much , much more energetic, and may move at a respectable fraction of the velocity of light (300,000 km/sec or 186,000 miles/sec). ...

Not all meteors are sporadic events, the regular meteor showers occur when the Earth bulldozes through a great swarm of meteoroids drifting in orbit round the Sun. ... They are at their best in the pre-dawn hours, as the face of the Earth turning towards the Sun catches more meteors as the Earth moves through space. ...
