I have been excited about the upcoming Orion meteor shower, and was wondering if anyone else was pumped. Also, I saw a meteor last Friday at dusk that seriously lit up the sky for a good 7-8 seconds. It streaked from the Southeast to the Northwest with a teal-green trail. It was still very bright outside and after seeing a -8 mag iridium last Wednesday, I would say this was 3 or 4 times brighter. Honestly it was a little terrifying at first.
