May 2 Meteors

Last night was another clear night over Tucson. Though the number of detected meteors dropped from one night ago, meteor rates are still healthy. The Eta Aquariids (ETA) are active during the last hours of the night. Hopefully rates will climb as we approach their peak in a few nights (May 4/5).
