Hello friends.
I want to share a bit of watching the Geminids 2007. ANASA organized a basketball court observation of Pierre & Marie Curie school. Attended: Dr. Jaime Incer, Marlon Zambrano, Julio Vannini, Luis Arguello, Trinidad Norman and I, all members of the Association. We are also accompanied a number of guests and people who learned of the event and our observation In.
count beginning at 21:00 local time Managua and end at about 1:30 am when he began to cloud and drizzle, and all we left the place, but happy to have had approximately 130 meteors . To see to know the official count of Nicaragua to see the blog updated by J. ANASA Vannini: http://anasa-carlsagan.blogspot.com/ Here a note of our observation in a local newspaper: http://www.laprensa.com.ni/archivo/2007/diciembre/15/noticias/ nacionales/232892.shtml (I am the penultimate jejejeje I leave).
The truth was spoken Spaceweather.com madness is estimated a 156 meteors per minute! And if we can observe up to three and 4 meteors followed.
Then, for my part decided to continue with the observation with a nephew and a friend of his. The school we went to the hospital the child to show a good friend of Genesis, to duty at the hospital, the beauty of a meteor shower. Until then she says he had never seen a meteor. Strangely no? But well, I am amazed by the bright lights of the Geminids shooting.
As at 03: 00 hours, we moved to my house to continue the observacióm. In total we counted 60 meteors until 05:00 am But it was worth the outdated ... hahaha
was a unique experience and I hope that happens again next year.
Here are some pictures
My keg and Me. How we are in the best skies in the year (at least that should happen) we use to take a look at the major objects of interest in the night (Comet 17P/Holmes, Mars, Orion Nebula, M31, Saturn, Sirius, etc ... .)

The joke of the Night: among people who attended to give their observadita, someone left forgotten the gift. Or maybe it was thought that the trash barrel??
