In case you've missed it on the news, we're about to have a huge meteor shower this weekend! At the rate of 1-2 every second at times... "For meteor watchers in North or Central America, the best viewing opportunities arrive in the early morning hours of Sunday, November 18...those looking eastward from dark locales with clear skies could expect to spot several thousand meteors per hour around 5 A.M. EST. Meteor watchers in Australia and East Asia will be treated to a display in the early morning hours of Monday, November 19. Observers in prime locations may see ten thousand meteors per hour." Here are a few viewing tips!
Thank God my Mom is getting my kids out of bed to go see them. :-)
