Jane Jones streaking...

... across the sky.

Well, technically, its Jane and her husband, Morris, streaking across the sky. Well, actually, its an asteroid bearing their names streaking across the sky...

Enjoy!

What magnitude is that one?

What an amazing pin point to pick out

I have send an e mail to both of them

Wonderful

Will there be a moving image?

Deirdre Kelleghan

Kieran - it was mag 16.5 so relatively easy, especially just after 9pm at this time of the year. It came out nice and clear though its moving very slowly so you can barely make out the movement over the few minutes worth of the animation.

Deirdre - it *is* a moving image! Its very slow but you can make it out. That said, I had to change some of my IE settings to allow animations to play. Maybe that's why you can't see it? Let me know...

Cheers
Dave
