Orionid Meteor Shower 2009

The movie was captured from John Chumack's "All Sky Cameras" mounted on his backyard observatory in Dayton, Ohio. Capture was done on 10-21-09, a 6.5 hour time lapse movie starting just after midnight and running until about 6:45am.

NOTE: Activity sharply increases around 5:00 am and meteors tend to be in exactly the same area. This was visually confirmed by myself from a different observing position about 100 miles north.
