The entire population of the Earth will be presented the views of hundreds of shooting stars that adorn the sky on Sunday night, rain shooting star or a Meteor Shower called the Perseids meteor shower can also be  seen around the world.

What kind of flesh of a meteor shower? Just imagine a shooting star in the night sky, but the falling stars can be hundreds of times.

Meteor shower Perse actually already underway since 17 July to 24August. But the peak of the meteor shower Perse took place on 11 and 12August 2013 that will put 50 up to 100 meteors per hour. One of the largest meteor shower of the year.

As quoted from EarthSky Perseids meteor shower, Meteor Shower coming from the tail of the Comet Swift Tuttle grime found by astronomers LewisSwift and Horace Tuttle of America in 1862. Earth that evolved around the Sun passed through the path of the Comet Swift Tuttle grime flakes annually, rather each August.

When Earth crosses the stone flakes from the tail of Comet Swift Tuttle, those rocks inevitably attracted by the Earth's gravity, into the Earth, and burned by the Sun that cause atmospheric layer looks like a shooting star in the night sky. Rock meteor burned up in the atmosphere and so the first time fell to Earth just a grain of sand that is totally harmless.
