Andromede \An"dro*mede\, Andromed \An"dro*med\, n.] (Astron.)
A meteor appearing to radiate from a point in the
constellation Andromeda, -- whence the name.
[1913 Webster]
Note: A shower of these meteors takes place every year on
November 27th or 28th. The Andromedes are also called
{Bielids}, as they are connected with Biela's comet and
move in its orbit.
