A few of us from the Mackay tropicalstargazers group were having a viewing session on sat 15th and must have caught a tail end blast from that shower. Personally I saw three bright slow moving meteors in a half hour period from around 8.30. We were trying to work out if there was a meteor shower due, it must have been taurids (they were all coming from the east) and the leonids would be much later in the night. A bit later in the evening we all saw a bright slow moving "meteor" come in from the south east travelling across the sky to the north west, this one lasted 4 to 5 seconds and a few of us thought it might have been space junk re-entering?
