Daytime Sextantid (DSX) Earthgrazing meteor at 4:55 am in Tucson AZ
Captured under waning Harvest Moon two days after full moon.
One of a number of dominantly daytime meteor showers that can sometimes be observed immediately before twilight of sunrise as was this one. With the rising radiant, this can produce an Earthgrazing meteor.
