I passed a kidney stone that size once. Probably burned more than that meteor did.

It's all about that moment when metal that hasn't seen the light of day for generations frees itself from the soil and presents itself to me.

Hi  Adrian See

We have a crater so big that an entire town lives within it, but all that I have ever seen are a few shooting stars and nothing else, you guys seem to have these meteor showers on a regular basis and as for meteorites I have yet to find one.

meteor showers

They are a world wide phenomenon, Xavier. Most showers have a known "best time" to see them. The Geminids are unusual in that they are visible dusk to dawn without a peak time.

I sure would think that they are but never have I heard on the news that there would be one nor have I seen one or even heard that there was one  Sad  I think I'm confused LOL

You'll just have to research them when we start talking here. Next up, the Orionids, if I'm not mistaken.
