  • [01] Leonides meteor shower to peak Friday at dawn

    The autumn Leonids meteor shower will reach its peak on Thursday night to early Friday at the north hemisphere.

    However, the supermoon has made the sky so bright and if even there are no clouds in the sky the conditions will not be good enough for night observation.

    The Leonids get their name from the location of their radiant in the constellation Leo.
