Afgelopen nacht 20 meteoren op de meteorencamera. #globalmeteornetwork

Mooie oogst van de meteorencamera afgelopen nacht: 41 meteoren (allemaal sporadisch).
#globalmeteornetwork

Meteor shower radiants by date, based on almost five years of open data from the #globalmeteornetwork. Each of these 750,000 dots corresponds to a meteor, observed by at least two #raspberrypi meteor cameras to triangulate the radiant.

Ooh our WCO’s (Wilson Coulee Observatory) meteor cams caught a few last night, the first night of the year! #Quadrantids meteor shower, peaking on Jan 3!

98 detected on the West Cam (left) and 138 (minus some satellite trains, looks like) on the East Cam (right). #calgaryrasc #globalmeteornetwork #gmn #yyc

The news I thought was neat:

The #UIS Observatory participates in the #GlobalMeteorNetwork (https://globalmeteornetwork.org/), running two nodes in "a #decentralized #science-grade instrument which observes the night sky every night of the year from as many locations around the world as possible."

During last week's #Geminid showers, 85 meteors were observed on campus, and 182 were seen at the off-campus #astronomy #research #observatory.

Neat visualization of the data too! #dataviz

The #GlobalMeteorNetwork camera at the University of Illinois Springfield research observatory caught 36 #Leonid meteors last night among the 135 total detected. #Data available at the link!
