On Thursday night, stargazers may get to see several meteors per minute during a rare event known as a meteor storm. There is a chance that the upcoming alpha Monocerotid meteor shower could turn into an all-out meteor storm on the night of Nov. 21,... ...“Unlike most meteor outbursts which last for several hours, strong activity from the alpha Monocertids is over within an hour and easily missed,” ...The outburst is forecast to reach its climax around 11:50 p.m. EST on Nov. 21, according to the AMS." |

Please Report What You See. . The last time this particular meteor shower stormed was in 1995: "If the radiant is visible from your location during this tiny observing window, you might just see a rare spectacle. Jenniskens, who joined members of the Dutch Meteor Society to monitor the shower in 1995, didn't know exactly what to expect but wasn't disappointed. He describes the experience in his book Meteor Showers and Their Parent Comets: "Suddenly, around 0:10 UT, three meteors radiated from a point on the border of the constellations Canis Major and Monoceros, 15° away from the position (radiant) given in past accounts. And this time it did not stop after just a few. Meteors started pouring out of Canis Minor, falling left and right, up and down. Bright meteors too . . ." [link to www.skyandtelescope.com (secure)] |

Please Report What You See. . Find some high ground out in the countryside where it is dark, with an un-obscured SE horizon. And get outside at least 20 min before 11:15 ET so your eyes will have time to adjust. And leave the damn cel phone in the truck - if you look at it even once, your eyes will need another 20 min to recover night vision mode. If you sit in the truck until right before the show start, the interior lights will come on when you open the door to get out, and ruin your night vision too. So just bundle up and plan on being outside in the dark for an hour. |
