Meteor Shower

[Rodolfo]

Anyone see any in your area?

Saw two small ones and the end of a big one in about an hour. Wish I would have gone out of town to get a better view of the night's sky.

I tried last night, but there is too much light pollution where I live in Denver.

It's amazing that the majority of them are no bigger than a grain of sand. I think tonight is the last night to catch a glimpse.

Yeah...it just goes to show how devastating a big asteroid traveling at that speed would be, if such tiny particles create such an energy release.

For sure...
