Last year we had favorable Moon conditions for several of the major meteor showers, but unfavorable weather. We did get lucky with Comet Neat during mid- May, the June 8 transit of Venus, and the October 27 total lunar eclipse. Unfortunately we do not have a block bluster line-up of similar events scheduled for 2005.
