The lads at the observing session saw 8+ meteors, I only saw one and not this one as I was buried in the scope eyepiece for most of the time.

We shall not cease from exploration
And the end of all our exploring
Will be to arrive where we started
And know the place for the first time. . . .

What's the difference between a Fireball and a Meteor:?
I saw what I would have called a Meteor on Sat @ approx 10.40pm with a 3 second tail. It was right across the face of the Plough. It was almost like a line joining the stars
