Japan Daytime Point-Source Astroidial Meteor Outbreak Event "Jim Gamble" Witnessed from Tokyo 11AUG2011
At approximately between 6:35-6:45 pm 11AUG2011, I witnessed a point-source burst with a large center cluster with 5-7 side bursts while standing on my balcony facing approximately due West just prior to sunset. At first I thought I was seeing fireworks!!!.... Stunned with awe, I ran into my apartment to grab a camera but the batteries were missing and it took time to locate a second camera. By the time I got back outside (approximately 3 minutes) the event was no longer visible.
If any Japanese Allsky or Japanese Radio Astronomers captured this event please contact me. Thank you!
