  1. Last night at 1am, clear sky and the "peak" of the #Lyrids of which I saw exactly 1 in two hours. Did some star trails again hoping to capture meteors as well, but only got satellites.

    May as well become a satellite spotter for all that I can change anything.

  9. Outside for two hours after midnight, clear skies, as the #Lyrids approach the peak. Saw a single #meteor... and it wasn't a Lyrid.

    Still, it was a chance to experiment with the new-ish star trails feature in the Dwarf3 app.

  14. The Lyrids are one of the oldest recorded meteor showers, with reported sightings dating back over 2,500 years. And they’re making their annual display next week. @Independent tells us how to witness the spectacle:

    A G2 geomagnetic storm watch is in effect for 17 & 18 April.

    Earth will be coming under the influence of the fast solar wind from this large coronal hole, which is now facing towards us.

    Strong aurora may combine with meteors from the annual Lyrids meteor shower, which peaks on 22 April, making for some stunning photo opportunities!

  24. Fun in the skies this April: timeanddate.com/news/astronomy

    "Despite the name, April’s Pink Moon won’t actually appear pink. The name is thought to come from pink phlox flowers that bloom in North America around this time of year." Oh well.

    I've never heard of "earthshine" before, so I had to look it up. NASA earthshine article: science.nasa.gov/earth/earth-o

    Apparently it's better in the spring.

    Lyrids meteor shower peaks on Tuesday

    Observations of the Lyrids date back around 2,700 years meaning it is one of the oldest-known meteor showers.

    The fireballs are created by debris from Comet Thatcher, which takes more than 400 years to orbit the Sun and was discovered in 1861 by A. E. Thatcher.

    They are named after the constellation Lyra and the radiant position, which is where the meteors appear to emanate from, is south-west of the star Vega.

  33. Stargazing level up. The Lyrids meteor shower peaks Apr 21-22. No gear needed, just find dark skies away from city lights. Let eyes adapt (30 mins). Pro tip: use apps like Stellarium to track the radiant. Catch ~15-20 meteors/hr. #Lyrids #Stargazing #Space

  38. The Lyrids meteor shower. Watch along the horizon, moving across from left to right. At 30 seconds, something incredible happens in the top right of the frame.

    I'm not sure what exactly it is, but I know it's special.
