Beschreibung:

This star chart shows the appearance of the eastern sky at 5:00 am on June 7, 2000 from a mid-northern latitude observing site. The Arietids radiant is 15 degrees above the horizon, while the zeta Perseids radiant is a scant 4 degrees high. Although meteors can streak very far from their radiants, it is difficult to spot many shooting stars when the radiant is low. Both the Arietid and Perseid meteor rates pick up substantially later in the day when the radiants move overhead.
