2005 Meteor Shower Database - This is a database of 2005 meteor showers, including: name of the shower, date range, date at which the shower peaks, the maximum rate per hour, the entry velocity, and the radiant.
For observation, the higher ZHR (Zenithal Hourly Rate), the better (more meteors). Maximum dates in parentheses indicate reference dates for the radiant, not true maxima.
Thanks to Alastair McBeath and the International Meteor Organization for the data, and for a very informative website!
