Ideal conditions to see peak of Lyrid meteor shower in UK.

"The Lyrid meteor shower is an annual event as a result of the Earth passing through dust left behind Comet Thatcher."
Absolutely impossible to read "Comet Thatcher" without imagining Rik Mayall spitting the name out with venom.

Late April means it's time for the #Lyrid #meteorshower: one of the oldest known showers, observed for 2700 years.
Are you a scientist studying the small bodies of the Solar System? Then #COSPAR2024 is for you, in particular, Scientific Event “B1.1 – Small Body Science in a New Generation of Surveys, Observatories, Sample Returns and Planetary Defense”.

I think i can call time on the 2023 #Lyrid #meteor shower now. A full report is available at the link below, but TLDR:
#UKMON made 2039 single-station detections, 88% of which were involved in multistation matches, leading to 331 confirmed matched Lyrids. 144 cameras were involved in matches. The brightest was mag -2.6; there were no fireballs or potential meteorite droppers.

The peak of observations was on the night of 23/24 April, but this reflects poor weather (...)
