Hello ya'll I happened to stumble upon Space.com that the world will be able to witness the first Leonid meteor shower since 1998 this weekend. In 98 people saw anywhere from 8 to 10 meteors a minute! Here is a link to see when is the best viewing time for wherever you are in the country.... www.space.com/spacewatch/061117_leonid_guide.html
