300P/Catalina is suspected of being the parent body of the minor
June Epsilon Ophiuchids meteor shower. There was an outburst of meteor activity from 19 June 2019 until 26 June 2019 when 88 June epsilon Ophiuchids were detected by the Cameras for Allsky Meteor Surveillance (CAMS) network. The June epsilon Ophiuchids created 50% of the fireball detections in the period 22–24 June. This outburst offers evidence of past activity of 300P/Catalina. The
radiant is near 16:21 (245.2) -7.4 in the
constellation of
Ophiuchus. The June epsilon Ophiuchids radiate from a very large scattered radiant area and may be related to a number of other minor showers that have been identified. The meteors have a velocity of around 14 km/s. == References ==
