I don't think the full moon is such an issue. It only obscures the faint meteors, but those you want to see are the bright ones, which will be visible regardless.ah it's beautiful-- I noticed some coloring in it! I also saw the local time there was around midnight? Will the early Perseids be the best, since the moon isn't going to be full for a few days?
Hello Everyone! I'm Karol and I'am a music producer called "WastReal" I will want to show You my work that i made with music video created in Space Engine onto one of my released works. Please Enjoy and comment me what You think.
A 3.8 is way too weak for a camera observation like this. But this instrument itself can detect such quakes up to about 2000 km away. Buffalo is about 6000 km away for me. A magnitude 5 quake, however, should be detectable at this distance, though the ground movement could be less than a micrometer.This is ironic! We just had an earthquake this morning (only 3.8) in the opposite part of the state-- in Buffalo!
Can such a weaker distant earthquake also be detected using this method, Mid?
Then you could have detected the August 2011 earthquake we had here, it is the only one I have ever felt in NYC! The zoo animals were behaving very oddly 30 min before the earthquake at the National Zoo in DC, it was noted by many people there before the event occurred. Interesting how they can feel the quake before it happens. The earthquake was a 5.8 and it was centered in the Carolinas I believe in August 2011. My house was shaking up here and water was moving around in the tub and toilet. A week after that we were hit by a hurricane (ironically the same combo of earthquake and hurricane happened in September 1944, that one was also a 5.8 but centered in the Adirondacks in NY, in 1944 it was thought the Nazis were bombing NY when that happened.)A 3.8 is way too weak for a camera observation like this.

Yes, here is what I recorded that day 2011-08-23 from 17:40 - 19:40 UTC. Clear enough, but there was quote a bit of background noise that day.
