But I'm curious... the report states: Meteors are named after the constellation from which they seem to appear -- in this case, Perseus, a northern constellation lying east of Cassiopeia and north of Taurus Looking through Stellarium, it would appear they will appear from E-NE and Cassiopeia will st...
