>>>Pick up the biggest meteor shower of the year in December
As the Earth passes through this comet, a large group of meteorites from this comet will plunge into the Earth's atmosphere at a rate of about 150,000 km / h.
Those meteorite pieces will rub against the air and ignite to form streaks of light that we call meteor.
We go back in history to see some pictures of the most beautiful meteor shower in the past 15 years in the world.

The fanciful, colorful painting in the sky of Colorado in August 2000 is a wonderful blend of moonlight and Perseid creating an interesting aurora phenomenon. The photo was recorded by astronomer Jimmy Westlake.
Perseids meteor shower is considered one of the largest, most brilliant meteors of the year with many very bright meteors (fireballs) with a density of 60 - 80 streaks / hour. In ideal conditions, the density of a supernova can be up to 100 tracks per hour.
The Leonid meteor shower usually occurs around November every year when Earth passes through the Comet Tempel-Tuttle. Leonid meteor shower comes from Leo constellation and is based on the name of this constellation. Above is a picture of Leonids meteor shower in Canada in 2001.
