If you are looking for the Texas meteor from Feb 1st 2012 try this as a starting point. www.youtube.com Some really amazing video. Went out on April 21st,2012 to see if I could get some good meteor shots. This time from the roof looking straight up! We got more but they were all sort and/or dim. We had to max out the settings in order to see most of them on video. Still made a nice little timelapse. About the Lyrids: The Lyrids gets it's name from Lyra near Vega which is where they appear to emanate from.The meteors are the result of the Earth passing through comet Thather's(C/1861 G1) trail on it's 415 year orbit of the Sun. It peaked on Saturday the 21st but may be seen over the course of several nights.
