Watching the Leonid Meteor Shower: Advice for a Great Experience.

A supermoon just happened, which was cool to see. But the moon will still be very bright this weekend, making it hard to see most meteors.

This weekend is the Leonid meteor shower, known for super fast meteors. The bright moon will make it hard to see most of them, though.

The best time to see the meteors is early morning, when the moon is lower. Even then, you might only see about 15 per hour.

Meteors come from space rocks entering Earth's atmosphere and burning up. This makes the air glow, leaving a fiery tail that we call a shooting star.

To see shooting stars best, go somewhere dark, away from city lights. Try not to look at your phone so your eyes get used to the dark.
