Details:
A beautiful clear sky last night for lawn chairs and beverage or two here in Upstate New York. I set up my make-shift Big Sky camera (not quite full-sky) using a convex security mirror to capture a larger area of sky. It was a busy sky with planes, blinking satellites, the ISS and one very bright perseid that went off like a flashbulb along the eastern horizon. A few modifications are needed to improve the camera/mirror/heater set-up and I'll try those tonight if the weather is favorable.
