Title: Last night - Perseids
Post by: Ptinid on August 14, 2010, 05:12:17 PM
Was travelling home from Holland on the ferry last night and took the chance of little cloud and no moon to watch the Perseid shower. Was slow to start but a couple of fantastic trails across the sky, including the biggest I've ever seen which left a silver streak that lasted for around 6 seconds. My lad saw one which came in purple and exploded into amny pieces. Many smaller fireballs. Incredible number of satellited visible from the sea.

Anybody get out to see them?
