Indian astronomers who are wondering why the much-hyped celestial display this morning turned out to be a dud, say they are completely baffled. Well-known astronomer Jayant Narlikar, who could count only two during the peak of the storm blames it partly on cloudiness and light pollution while Mr R Subramaniam, Director of the Birla Planetarium in Calcutta, says either " the earth did not plunge completely into the comet's orbit," or a shift in time frames took the display beyond daybreak making the meteors invisible.
