The meteor year of the Meteor Research Group of the European Space Agency's Research and Scientific Support Department
2008
A lot of activities took place in 2007 at the Meteor Research Group (MRG) of the European Space Agency’s (ESA) Research and Scientific Support Department (RSSD). Both special observing campaigns as well as continuous observations were performed, mainly with intensified video cameras, but also with still CCD cameras. Over 1400 meteors were observed; about 150 meteors were observed from more than one station allowing orbit computations. In addition to collecting observational data, ESA/RSSD further pursued the idea of setting up standards for a ‘Virtual Meteor Observatory’. The activities are summarized here to allow referencing for more detailed, scientific papers.
