Scientific paper

The radiant motion and orbit of the Lyrid meteor stream is determined from 14 precisely reduced photographic meteors observed in the period 1941-1985. The scatter in the orbital elements is extremely small. The mean Lyrid orbit is practically identical with that of P/Comet 1861 I. The mean photographic orbit is compared with that determined from radar measurements.
