Leonids 2002 - Counting meteors from the air

by Jane Houston Jones


For eight days in November Mojo and I took one of the most exciting trips of our lifetimes. We participated in our fifth and final Leonid Multi-Instrument Aircraft Campaign under the direction of Dr. Peter Jenniskens.

We've compiled our pictures, 2002 writeups, writeups from the previous 4 missions and some Leonid history and outreach activities into a webpage documenting our recent adventure aboard the NASA DC-8 Airborne Laboratory. We are still on cloud nine just recalling our adventures over the past two weeks. We hope you enjoy it!
