Summary

[edit]
Description
Deutsch: Die Aufnahme ist zusammengesetzt aus 64 Einzelbildern mit Sternschnuppen, davon wurde ein Bild als Hintergrund genutzt. Die Aufnahme wurde in der Nacht vom 12. auf den 13.08.2024 erstellt mit Sternschnuppen von 23:20 bis 03:27 (MESZ), das Hintergrundbild wurde um 02:26 aufgenommen. Die Position der Sternschnuppen am Himmel wurde nicht verändert, da kein Startracker verwendet wurde, zeigen die Spuren nicht genau auf einen Punkt im Himmel, da der Radiant sich bewegte.
English: The image is a composite of 64 individual exposures of meteors, one of these images was used as a background. The frames were taken in the night from 12 to 13 August 2024 with shooting stars from 23:20 to 03:27 (CEST), the background image was taken at 02:26. The position of the shooting stars in the sky was not changed, as no star tracker was used, the tracks do not point exactly to one point in the sky as the radiant of the meteor shower was moving.
