METEOR OUTBURST: Radars in Canada are reporting a major outburst of Draconid meteors commencing at 16 UT on Oct. 8th. “Radar rates are at 1000 meteors per hour,” says Bill Cooke of NASA’ Meteoroid Environment Office. “This is greater than last year’s outburst, and 5x the 2005 level.”
Cooke encourages northern sky watchers, especially in Europe where night is falling, to be alert for Draconid activity.
