Message: From GoLocalProv by David A. Huestis, GoLocal Astronomy Contributor: The majority of the meteor showers we observe these days are centuries old. Some of the displays, like the Perseids and the Geminids, put on a good annual show. Then there are the minor showers that only produce ten or less meteors per hour at best. These particles, stripped off the comet’s surface by the solar wind, become a meteor stream spread out along the comet’s orbit. http://www.golocalprov.comhttp://beta.golocalprov.com/can-you-say-camelopardalids
