  his weekend: The Leonid meteor showerEarth is entering a stream of debris from Comet 55P/Tempel-Tuttle, source of the annual Leonid meteor shower.
NASA cameras have already detected a number of Leonid fireballs over the USA with peak rates expected on Nov. 17th and 18th. The weekend display is best seen at dawn alongside a new comet and a conjunction between Venus and the brightest star of Virgo. Visit Spaceweather.com for the full story. |

Re: his weekend: The Leonid meteor shower Will keep an eye out for the shower and the comet.
Venus has been nice and bright in the early morning sky to the south east just before sunrise. Thanks Mark. Phil - G7BZD _________________ Phil - G7BZD. |
