Benson, AZ 85602 hm ph: 520-586-2244 Chris, We saw two bright Geminids at about 9:30pm while we were driving home from the Huachuca Astronomy Club Christmas party last night. The weather was very windy with high, thin clouds that brought in the low clouds and rain that we're having today. Clear skies and Happy Holidays to All, Wayne (aka Mr. Galaxy) -- Chris Schur <comets133@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: Dan, Tom is right, about one arc second is seen here on a good night - that is with the super short frames I take to freeze the seeing. By the way, anyone see any geminids last night? It rained and snowed here in Payson all night long!

I looked at the larger image, and the detail is fantastic. Very 3D. I'm guessing you're resolving details on the order of 1/8 to 1/4 miles. Do you know?
