 Composite image of Aurigid shower with 15 Aurigids observed from one of the two aircraft by Jason Hatton (ESA/ESTEC). The meteors span the period 11:04:44 to 11:50:54UT 1st September 2007 (a 46 minute period covering the peak). Notice the one Aurigid that seems to fall behind the horizon! A satellite trail is visible just below alpha Columbae. Credit: NASA/ESA
