NASA Cameras Spot Meteor From Obscure Shower - The Future of Things

It's a strange-sounding name for a constellation, coming from the Greco-Roman word for giraffe, or "camel leopard". The October Camelopardalids are a collection of faint stars that have no mythology associated with them -- in fact, they didn't begin to appear on star charts until the 17th century. Even experienced amateur astronomers are hard-pressed to find the constellation in the night sky. (source: nasa.gov)
