Leonid Meteor Shower

The sky will be falling tonight in an area near you. Please do not be alarmed unless you see a bright, glowing mass directly above your head with no tail.

The real bright glowing mass is likely to be the moon, which is going to make seeing the other masses a lot harder.

Afraid not. I only studied theoretical physics. What you bring up is the sort of implementation detail you throw over to the engineers.

That's an engineer at NASA. Would that help?
