The much anticipated and never-before-seen Camelopardalids meteor shower graced the skies of the Northern Hemisphere this weekend. While many say the reportedly epic meteor shower fell well short of expectations, others posted some pretty awesome photos online. What did you see?
Regardless of whether you saw one meteor of 100 on Friday and Saturday night, you did see something unique. NASA says that nobody had ever seen the Camelopardalids shower before this weekend. As a bonus, a rare comet (209P/LINEAR) flew by towards the tail end of the meteor shower, sending even more debris into Earth’s atmosphere. But the extent to which the show was spectacular totally depends on where you were standing.
Feel free to post your meteor shower or comet photos in the comments, and do let us know what you thought of the show.
