Abstract
Meteor of June 4. A brilliant meteor much brighter than the moon was observed in evening twilight on June 4 at 8h 32m G.M.T. Observations have been received from Hanwell, Surbiton, Rye, Arundel, Hindhead; and a satisfactory computation of the height and other details of the object has been made by Mr. A. King as follows: height 75 miles at appearance, 44 miles at disappearance; length of path 83 miles; speed 22 miles per second. The radiant was in Libra at 235°– 12°.
