Brilliant Display of Stars Seen In Leonid Meteor Shower
New Mexico and Arizona desert observers reported a spectacular Leonid meteor shower with estimates from 1,000 to 2,400 meteors per minute at peak, rivaling a century-old display. New York observers in a plane saw far fewer, about 20 per hour, due to clouds and altitude. Hayden Planetarium head Dr Thomas D Nicholson noted the right place and time amplified the display. Chicago astronomer Gary Emerson described a meteor bright enough to cast a shadow at Corralitos Observatory in Las Cruces.
