		<description><![CDATA[The next upcoming meteor shower is one of my favorites, the January 2012 Quadrantids. The last two years, the Quadrantids was not as active as it was in 2009, where I was stunned by how full of life this meteor shower was. This Meteor Shower is known to generate up to 120 meteors per hour. [...]]]></description>

The dust particles of Halley’s Comet (IP/Halley) enter the Earth’s atmosphere at speeds of 90,000+ miles per hour. Sounds amazing I&#8217;m sure since Halley’s Comet is in orbit around the Sun and was closest to Earth in 1986. The [...]]]></description>

However unlike most meteor showers, the source of the Geminids Meteor Shower event is not a comet. This makes it unique. In fact, the dust particles or meteoroids that bombard Earth each [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The Leonids Meteor Shower is the strongest meteor shower in November. The Leonids&#8217; parent comet, 55P/Tempel-Tuttle, came closest to Earth in 1998 and produced some massive meteor showers that were unpredicted in 2001. In recent times, the Leonids activity has been erratic of late. This year, I believe there will be moderate activity during the [...]]]></description>

The Leonids Meteor Shower starts on November 10th and continues until November 23rd. I’m uncertain about the Leonids this year, I’m hoping, and I’d like to emphasize, “hoping” that this year will produce decent results. I wanted to put [...]]]></description>
