How to See Meteors Shower Tomorrow

In the pre-dawn hours Tuesday, you may have chance to see the annual display of Leonid meteor shower, one of the best annual meteor showers in year.

The best place for watching is in Asia; but if you're in North America, you also would be treated well with a better-than-average performance of meteors. Just wake up early, between 1 a.m. to dawn, head outside to observe the beautiful moment of the universe.

A meteor shower is a celestial event in which a number of meteors are observed to radiate from one point in the night sky. These meteors are caused by streams of cosmic debris meteoroids entering Earth's atmosphere at extremely high speeds. In every mid-November, the Leonid puts on a show and if you the skies are clear and moonlight does not interfere, you can observe it easily. Fortunately, this year the moon is near it s new phase, and therefore it won't become a factor that detracts the show.

For anyone in the Northern Hemisphere with dark skies, the meteor shower tomorrow should be worth getting up early to see.

The best condition for viewing the meteor shower is in rural areas, as urban dwellers and suburbanites will see far fewer because the fainter meteors will be drown out by local light. Get out of the town if you can, or look for a location in advance where the lights are blocked by a building or a tree. Don't forget to bring a coat or a blanket along as the temperature will be low.

It is no need to bring binocular or telescope or any special devices as the meteors move very fast. Give your eyes some time to adjust to the darkness and you will be able to observe sky. Spend your time observing at least half an hour because the quiet periods between bursts may be long. Gather a group of friends observe together to is a good idea.

Earth will pass through one of the denser debris streams and the show will reach the climax at around 4 a.m., Tuesday. If you have only an hour or less to watch, center it around this time. Across Europe, the best time to watch is between 1 a.m. and daybreak local time.

These above are some ideas to prepare for the meteors shower that happens only once a year, the Leonid. You shouldn't miss this chance, as the Leonid meteors shower is always promising to produce beautifully colorful and unforgettable fireball.
