Reports Report 3970c (Event 3970-2016)
| Observer | |
|---|---|
| Name | Stève D |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | The sky was cloudy, but the clouds were not very thick : enough to hide the stars, but not enough to cover the full moon for example (the moon was visible with a halo around). Because of that kind of sky, it's difficult to determine if it's the coulds that were responsible of the some variations of intensity of the meteor during his trail, or if it's because the meteor himself was variable. What I saw, it was meteor with variation of light intensity during 3 sec. : half second shinnig, half second less, again with more light, etc. |
