2006 Video Observations Table

The table below lists, in reverse chronological order, the video meteor observations obtained by the American Meteor Society. While most of the abbreviations are clear, several may need clarifying: UT = Universal Time. TeFF indicates the length of the period in percentages of an hour (1.00 = 1.00 hour, 0.50 = .50 hour or 30 minutes). SOL. LG. is the solar longitude of the mid-point of each period. This is used as precise time measurements independent of any time or date. F is the obscuration (usually clouds, trees, or hills) factor where 1.00 = no obscuration and 2.00 = 50% obscuration. SPO = Sporadic (ramdom activity). ANT = Antihelion activity. SHR = Shower activity. Numeric figures under notes indicate the presence of moonlight and the percentage of the illuminated portion of the moons disk. 1.00 = Full Moon, "+" indicates waxing (before full moon) phase and "-" indicates waning (after full moon) phase.
