Watch The Sky Fall - Leonids Meteor Shower


It's not often that you can play Chicken Little, but this weekend is one of those times.  The Leonids Meteor Shower is an annual event as the Earth passes through the tail of  the Tempel-Tuttle comet.  The best viewing will begin Friday evening with the peak happening early on Saturday morning. (3:00 a.m.)   I don't usually encourage my 11 year old to stay up until the wee hours of the morning, but this may be an exception.  http://news.nationalgeographic.com/news/2012/11/121112-leonids-meteor-shower-shooting-stars-space-science/
