Yep, happens all around the world, usually after something like 2:00 AM.

Here's some info.

Thank you for the link, Mort. :)

Horaa,! I will stay up whole night for it!
emm, by the way, who would like to go with me to watch the shooting stars, PM me. :p kidding.

But since we are under the same piece of the sky, perhaps it can make us feel connected in some way. :rolleyes:
 
i stayed up late to watch it and only saw one measly meteor. :( poor showing for me this year. the year before last i saw 4 in 30 mins.
better luck next year
 
It's not really a meteor, you know - it's just dust, not much larger than a grain of sand.

Cheers
 
It doesn't matter how big it is. You'll still end up food for the Triffids. Why do people never learn?

yes, but it's easier to say meteor (especially since we're referring to the Perseid meteor shower)

are you an astronomy buff, martin?

Erm .. yeah!

No, not really - I just thought I'd say something interesting, to make myself look clever.

I'm depressed now.

Cheers

i already think you're clever :)

i'm an amateur backyard astronomer, so i thought i'd ask to see if you had interest, too
