Mini samplers -tiny Orionids - Halley Comet debris

Post by ykchia »

Hi folks:

Just a one page showing how Orionids ( Halleys' debris) look like in a video system / real time pc capture outside my window. The FOV is intentional to include portions of Orion ...

Orionids are swift meteors....

hi yk.
I wonder how your shots would look if you can mount it on a goto scope !
anyway, sky was clear last night but too bad Mooey only saw one meteor...I hope the next shower falls on a clear Saturday!

Hi Rich:

You will get pin point stellar images with meteor streaks on a tracking plateform. I couldn't since I stick out my setup on a piece of wood on a static tripod...12 storey up.
