Cosmic Fireworks
Jul 31, 1988
Would you like to see a shooting star? August is the best month of the year for meteors; go outdoors on a dark, clear night between now and 17 August and you should see several members of the Perseid meteor stream as they plunge to their fiery death in the Earth's upper air. With Dr John Mason, Patrick Moore talks about this annual display of cosmic fireworks.
