Leonid meteor shower Scheduled for Tomorrow Morning

Boston (DbTechNo) – Less than one day after the lift off of the space shuttle Atlantis, Asia and North America will be treated to a meteor shower.

The annual Leonid meteor shower will take place early tomorrow morning with the best vantage point being on the Asian continent.

So far, weather appears to be favorable for great viewing, from both continents, and maybe even from Europe.

People wanting to catch a glimpse should scan the sky between the hours of 1:AM and whenever dawn breaks.

According to experts astronomers in Asia should be able to see 200 to 300 meteors per hour during the shower.

This is an annual event, so all you stargazers get out those telescopes and prepare for a long night.
