Andromedids outburst 2021 11 27-28 tracked stack
Meteors recorded by my GMN camera on the night of 27th-28th November 2021. A late burst of Andromedids was recorded by GMN cameras. When the radiant is close to or within the field of view the meteors are coming towards the camera, so the trails can be quite short and that makes determining the radiant trickier. Preliminary local analysis of the trails captured by my camera identified 11 Andromedids, 5 November Orionids, 4 Geminids, 2 November i Draconids and 51 sporadics.

57 of the meteors in this image were matched with ones caught by at least one other camera, and of the meteors for which orbits could be determined, 5 were Andromedids, 4 were December alpha Draconids, 4 were Southern chi Orionids, 3 were Southern Taurids, 3 were November Orionids, 2 were Northern Taurids, 2 were Northern chi Orionids, and one came from each of the Orionids, December Canis Minorids, December Northern delta Arietids, 50 Cancrids, sigma Hydrids and tau Taurids. 28 of the matched meteors were sporadics.
