Major Meteor Shower Next Weekend

Posted by timothy on from the stock-the-bomb-shelter dept.

With meteors peaking November 17-18, and particularly over the Pacific, now is the time to check the predicted local meteor flux and buy chips for those star parties. Anyone adding a wireless hub and laptops for a star+lan party?"
