Perseids and others on night of 5th to 6th August 2023
This is a tracked stack of the meteors captured by my two Global Meteor Network cameras on the night of 5th to 6th August, 2023. Between them, the cameras caught 149 meteors. The preliminary analysis suggests 74 were Perseids, 39 were sporadics, 9 were Southern delta Aquiriids, 8 were alpha Capricorinds, 8 were kappa Cygnids, 7 were Piscis Austrinids, 2 eta Eridanids and 2 Northern delta Aquiriids. There was patchy cloud at times, and the Moon was a few days past full, but still bright. The camera fields do overlap, so some were seen by both cameras...
