About this image

A sporadic meteor in Aquarius captured on 7 October 2026 at 21:21 UT. Taken with a Canon 250D with 7.5mm fisheye lens (cropped). I was out hoping to get some pre-peak Draconid meteors. I didn't capture or see any and the cloud rolled in after midnight, putting an end to observing.
