	pi puppids (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-04)
		The Pi Puppids are a meteor shower associated with the comet Comet Grigg-Skjellerup 26P.
		The meteor stream was viewable around April 23 but only in years around the parent comet's perihelion date, the last being in 2003.
		The Pi Puppids get their name because their radiant appears to lie in the constellation Puppis, at around Right ascension 112 degrees and Declination -45 degrees.

	pi - Hutchinson encyclopedia article about pi
		Pi is an irrational number: it cannot be expressed as the ratio of two integers, and its expression as a decimal never terminates and never starts recurring.
		For example, a piece of string tied around the circumference of a mug will measure approximately three times the diameter of the mug.
		Pi is also a transcendental number (a number that cannot be expressed as a root or as the solution of an algebraic equation with rational coefficients).

		The Pi Puppids, otherwise known as the Grigg/Skjellerupids are active between April 15 and April 28 with a maximum on the 23rd of that month.
		Average magnitude for Pi Puppid meteors is between 1.9 and 2.3 (listed as 2.0).
		The Pi Puppids may have increased activity this year with the return of P/ Grigg/Skjellerup and is definitely worth looking out for.

		The overall duration of the activity was given as April 23-25.
		A weak return of the Pi Puppids was observed by the West Australian meteor observers during 1979---a time when the comet was actually nearing its greatest distance from the sun.
		A very strong return of the Pi Puppids was observed on the night of April 23/24.

	NAMN Notes: April 2003
		The pi Puppids (PPU) reach a maximum on April 24th at 3h UT. This means 11 pm EDT on April 23rd for observers in eastern North America.
		Pi Puppids can be seen from about April 15th to 28th.
		The pi Puppids are debris from Comet 26P/Grigg-Skjellerup, discovered in 1902 by John Grigg of Thames, New Zealand, and J.F. Skjellerup of Cape of Good Hope, South Africa.

		So when I watched her write the address on her hand, I kind of knew that it was about time for another visitor.
		This is the weekend after all, and somehow it all seems to all flow together, the E-mail, the Puppids and stars and all.
		Not wanting the Marsupial smuggler and her brother to get all the glory, I thought that perhaps one of my children has had a little less play here lately.

		NGC 2451 is visible to the naked eye whilst NGC 2477 is so distant that it resembles a globular cluster except under high magnifications.
		The Pi Puppids shower is so young that it has been observed only since 1972.
		Comet 26P/Grigg-Skjellerup is associated with this shower and the radiant is near Pi Puppis.

		For southern observers the Pi Puppids are now active.
		Puppis is located low in the southwestern sky after sunset for those north of the equator and much higher in the western sky for those located further south.
		The Pi Puppids are most active when periodic comet Grigg-Skjellerup is near perihelion.

		Having its recent perihelion so close to Earth 's orbit made it an easy target to reach for the Giotto mission (spacecraft) in 1992, whose primary mission was to Comet Halley.
		In 1972 the comet was discovered to able to produce a meteor shower, the Pi Puppids, and its current orbit makes them peak around April 23, for observors in the southern hemisphere, best seen when the comet is closest to the Earth at perielion.

		By mid-April, on the 15th, the radiant will be at 205 degrees, ie RA 13h 40.2m, Dec -8, which is about 5 degrees up to the left of the bright star Spica, in Virgo.
		The pi Puppids (PPU) reach a maximum on April 23rd, right after the Lyrid maximum, and can be seen from about the 15th to 28th.
		At maximum on the 23rd, the radiant will be at 110 degrees, ie RA 7h 19.8m, Dec - -45, which is about 15 degrees due south of the star eta Canis Majoris, the bottom left foot star of Canis Major.

		RA 7h 19.8m, Dec -45, which is about 15 degrees due south of the star eta Canis Majoris, the bottom left foot star of Canis Major.
		The pi Puppids are slow meteors with a velocity of about 18 km per second.

		Cliff Turk supplemented this with observations he made in 2001.
		Pi Puppids: A special watch was organised based on Peter Jennisken's notification, and based on a prediction by Jerome Valbaillon, of a possible outburst on April 23.
		Weather conditions were not entirely favourable, but a watch by several observers indicated no outburst, apart from a brief flurry witnessed by Mike Begbie.

	C&MS: 26P/Grigg-Skjellerup
		The current alignment of this comet's orbit allows it to produce a meteor shower around April 23.
		The Pi Puppids were discovered in 1972 following the prediction by H. Ridley that the comet could now produce a meteor shower.
		Activity is best seen by observers in the Southern Hemisphere where hourly rates have reached values as high as 42, but only in those years closest to the comet's perihelion passage.

		In the first half of December, only the chi-Orionid maximum is sufficiently Moon-free for useful observing.
		Other peaks are due as follows: Phoenicids - December 6, 20:30 UT; Puppid Velids - around December 7; Monocerotids - December 9; sigma-Hydrids - December 12; Geminids - December 14, 11:40±2.5h.
		Luckily, the Coma Berenicids and Ursids end the visual observer's year on a high note, as both enjoy dark skies.
