  (meteorobs) Revised AMS Meteor & Meteor Showers FAQ   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-17)
Meteor storms are not limited to only November, and in a historical parallel, the famous October Draconid (or Giacobinid) storm of 1946 also did much to spawn the study of meteors by radio methods.
Meteor storms are generally caused by young meteor streams, in which the majority of the streams' mass is still concentrated near that portion of the orbit occupied by the parent comet.
Meteor storms occur when the Earth crosses the orbit of the meteor stream, at the same time that the main mass of the young meteor stream is crossing the orbit of the Earth.

 The Gloster Meteor
The Meteor I was an all-metal aircraft of conventional construction, with low-mounted straight wings with two spars, turbojets mid-mounted in the the wings, and a high-mounted horizontal tailplane to keep it out of the way of the jet exhaust.
The Meteor was designed in a "modular" fashion, a consequence of the fact that it had been originally ordered during the Battle of Britain, when planners had considered the need for "dispersed production", with different factories building different subassemblies of the aircraft for final assembly at a central location.
Meteor pilots were keen to test their aircraft against the Messerschmitt Me-262 jet fighter, but at least initially they had orders not to fly beyond enemy lines lest one of their aircraft be shot down and examined.

 AMS Radio Meteor Project
Meteor radio wave reflections are also called meteor echoes or events.
This is called meteor burst communications, and is frequently used as a backup means to satellite communications.
In North America, the most widely known meteor burst communications system is the SNOTEL system, used by the U.S. Natural Resources Water and Climate Center, located in Portland, Oregon, to monitor rain and snowfall levels at remote stations throughout the Rocky Mountains.

International Meteor Organization (IMO) - New observers should choose a period around the maximum of one of the major showers when more than 15-20 meteors are visible per hour.
Not only it is much more fun to see lots of meteors, it is also important to see plenty in order to get sufficient practice of recording data, and to become familiar with the appearance of meteors generally.
Red meteors occasionally appear as very long streaks and are usually indicative of a meteor that is skimming the atmosphere.

 An Exploration of Meteor Angular Speeds
The eight meteors are evenly distributed at distances of 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, and 40 degrees from the radiant point, with a "near" and "far" pair placed in each directional quadrant.
A rough estimate of the average meteor angular speed is then obtained by dividing the distance by the duration later during initial data reduction on paper.
The meteor angular speed estimate is primarily used for meteor shower classification verification, using the relationships shown in Equations 1 & 2 and Figures 1-5.

A covering letter by Meteor also states that the proposal is in accordance with Government guidelines and the relocation of the mast to a site further west on the hill will reduce visual impact.

Meteor have supplied the details as part of the planning application which indicates that the proposed site, when complete, will not have a negative impact on the landscape or skyline and will have a minimal impact on the countryside.

 AMS Meteor Shower FAQ
The majority of visible meteors are caused by particles ranging in size from about that of a small pebble down to a grain of sand, and generally weigh less than 1-2 grams.
Meteors enter the atmosphere at speeds ranging from 11 km/sec (25,000 mph), to 72 km/sec (160,000 mph!).
Meteor storms are generally caused by young meteor streams, in which the majority of the streams' mass is still concentrated along that portion of the orbit occupied by the parent comet.

 American Meteor Society Intro to Observing
Because most meteor observers do not start early in the evening (Prior to 10:00 p.m) when the normal rates are low, we still encourage observers, who can, to try to obtain evening hourly rates as the data are needed for statistical purposes.
Meteor shower rates fluctuate by a considerable amount because meteors even in showers are statistically independent events.
The results obtained by groups may be submitted together to the AMS Ltd., but for statistical validity, we must assume and insist that each individual honestly report on his own work.
