Aquarid Meteors and a tethered satellite
It was well worth getting up for the Aquarids Meteor Shower early this morning. All up i saw 6 Aquarid Meteors, 1 really bright Iridium flare, my first tethered satellite ( there were 2 in the pair to the naked eye-caught on camera) and a bright non Aquarid Meteor heading toward the radiant. In one lot, there were 2 bright Meteors in very quick succession (2 secs). Captured on camera is the tethered satellite and two Meteors.

I love the colours in the Meteors.
Cheers,
Steve.
