LEONID METEOR SHOWERThe annual Leonid Meteor Shower will put on a dramatic sky show once again. The best place to view the meteor shower will be in Asia as there will be rates of 100-500 Leonids per hour. Observers should watch on the morning of November 18th. North American observers will also see a better show this year, so don't miss it. The Moon will be completely out of the picture and will not cause any problems. It's best to look up during the early morning hours. The Leonids are very fast meteors. The shower is active at a low "background" level for about a week from November 14-21.
