CilacapUpdate.com – A meteor shower is a celestial event in which multiple meteors are observed emanating or emanating from a single point in the night sky.
This meteor is caused by a flow of cosmic debris called meteoroids which enters the Earth’s atmosphere in parallel paths at very high speeds.
Most meteors are smaller than a grain of sand, so almost all of them disintegrate and never hit the earth’s surface.
