11/18/2001 Entry: "My Leonids Videos"

Leonids Metor Shower
November 18th 2001 4:00am-5:45am EST
Public Boat Launch, Rockland, ME 04841 Sony Hi8 Handycam with Tripod

I saw over 100 meteorites, I am not sure how many exactly.
The video camera caught about 35 of them. I saw several
very bright ones, one came strait down because it looked
like a super bright star, then it burned out. I have put 2 of
the most dramatic ones online. I also have another clip of
serval smaller meteorites.

There was alot of activity around 4:00 am then around 4:20
and then around 5:05 am. I also saw 2 satellites and possibly
the ISS? There was some problems with the lights in the city
but I was able to still enjoy the show. I was by myself and I
wanted to share what I saw.
Enjoy.

I'm kicking myself because I fell ASLEEP and missed the whole thing. :(
