Scientific paper

THE conditions this year were all against any bright or plentiful exhibition of the Perseids. Apart from the presence of the full moon, the sky at Bristol on August 11 and 12 was full of thin white clouds, amid which it was only possible to distinguish bright meteors. On August 103, however, the firmament was clear, but the Perseid shower was evidently influenced by the luminous atmosphere, for only about twelve per hour were visible before midnight. The radiant point was in the usual position at 43° + 57°. A few brilliant meteors were seen from Perseus on August 11, but clouds prevailed to such an extent that it was impossible to judge as to the strength of the display.
