Occurring annually in mid-November, the Leonids meteor shower gets its name from the constellation Leo, from which it appears to radiate. The meteor shower is visible every year around the time the Earth moves through the particles left from the comet Tempel-Tuttle. Though most years’ showers have a low frequency of meteors, the Leonids have produced some of the most spectacular meteor showers in history. How many meteors are estimated to have been observed per hour during the shower in 1833? Discuss
