Night sky watcher David Kingham took this photo of the Perseid meteor shower from Snowy Range in Wyoming on August 12, 2012.
I hope everyone got to see a few meteors when the Perseids peaked this past weekend!
Clear your evening plans: The 2011 Perseid meteor shower is best seen tonight.

Go outside. Look up.
This isn’t a video of the Leonids (it’s a video of the Perseids a few months ago in Joshua Tree National Park), but it’s phenomenal regardless.
I highly recommend putting it in HD and on full-screen.
