Alan just about Covered it with his previous post.
Friday night was a cracka of a night for Meteors. I spotted no less than 23 over the whole night.
And that was only when I was looking up at the dark sky and not through the scope.
Many were from the same part of the sky, and a few sporadic ones mixed in with them. The dark sky helped me spot the very faint and fleeting ones that would normally be undetected in brighter areas.
I also forgot just how dark the sky is there, and how many stars there as opposed to my home on the Coast.
Campfires every night and nice red wine went down well.
So nice to meet Rado who has a great passion for the stars and a really good knowledge of the sky.
Thx Alan for the music that was playing most of the time. I enjoyed listening to it all.
Let’s go again before winter is over....
