The autumn meteor season is ramping up, and when the sky is clear tere are quite a few to be captured. Here's what my Global Meteor Network camera captured last night.

This image includes 20 Orionids (ORI), 7 epsilon Geminids (EGE), 7 Leonis Minorids (LMI), 4 Southern Taurids (STA), 3 chi Taurids (CTA) and 33 sporadics (at least according to the preliminary analysis). Here's a chart produced during that analysis:

Given the weather forecast for the next few nights, there's not much chance I'll catch many more this year... Oh well.
The nights of 22nd and 23rd were almost completely clouded out, but last couple of nights (24th and 25th) have (surprisingly, given the weather) produced quite a good collection of meteors, a fair few of which have been Orionids. So far, over the last couple of weeks, my camera's caught over 70 meteors that preliminary analysis determined were Orionids.
