NASA describes it as the best and most reliable meteor shower of the year and it will be easily visible in the sky over Missouri and Illinois in December.
It's been an active last few weeks in the skies over Missouri and Illinois as yet another huge meteor just exploded in the sky over the Ozarks. There's new video showing what it looked like.
We see meteors all the time flash across the sky in Missouri and Illinois, but how many reach the ground? More than you think as I can document at least 24 meteorites that have been found in Missouri alone.
It was a rather active night for meteors over Missouri. A time-lapse video shows many fireballs that streaked across the sky. One even left a trail of smoke.
It's been an active year in our skies when it comes to meteors, fireballs and such. That includes an event Wednesday evening when videos captured a fireball reportedly seen by hundreds over Missouri and Illinois.
Once again our skies have not been boring. A bright fireball was widely reported over 3 states early Thursday morning including the Missouri Ozarks as a camera shows.
If really want an epic view of the stars, you need to get far away from cities. That's what one videographer did as they captured a stunning time-lapse video of a starry night which included many meteors from deep inside the woods of Missouri.
Saturday night will be a good night to keep your eyes on the skies if you enjoy fireballs. There are 3 different meteor showers that will be happening concurrently and our skies should remain clear.
