Leonid Meteor Shower

Leonid Meteor Shower

Some Astro students joined us to watch the LEONID METEOR SHOWER, we also do astrophotograhy, sketching, teach some first year to align and focus the scope, hunt some deep sky objects and of course observation of leonids. While laying on the floor in our quadrangle, we saw a faint meteor, while going it became bigger, and change into color white to yellow and boom! it disappear! AWESOME! a long meteor! weii! it breaks the meteor shower that i saw last year during geminid meteor shower. so beautiful! we shout out loud because of the long meteor! :D sooo awesome! \m/ :D for the win! We tally every meteor we saw that night for the data! :)
