Even being rapidly known for its rocks, NASA Declare What a moonlight that is gone meteor Weaker, then it is expected to look at 10 to 15 fragments per hour at most.
The rocks that create the rain from the aquatic meteorites from the 1p/HALYY guilty, which, when returning to the inner solar system, creates a layer of dust to space – which crosses Juna and is visible.
It takes about 76 years to rotate once and witnessed the last time by observers in 1986. After 2025, the comet will enter our time again in 2061.
The name of the rain comes from the place in the sky from which meteorites are seen, which is located in the constellation of the bucket, where one of the brightest stars Eta aquarii is called.

What is rain from the meteor?
According to NASA, the meteor rain is the phenomenon in which many meteorites enter into the atmosphere of the earth. The agency explains that with the fall of the space rock towards Earth, the air resistance over the rock makes it very hot, and we see a “shock star”.
“This bright path is not a truly rock, but the hot and bright air where the hot rock crosses the atmosphere,” explains the American Space Agency.
This often happens because with the approaching of the comet from the sun, part of its cold surface evaporates, and it release molecules of dust and rocks, which are Wreck is widespread along the way.
“Several times a year, while the Earth takes its journey around the sun, its orbit crosses the orbit of the comet, which means that the Earth clashes with many of the wreckage of the comet.
How to monitor the rain from meteorites?

- Take a blanket if the atmosphere is cold in the place or a comfortable chair with you, as it includes meteorites at the time of waiting.
- After finding your observation location, lie on the ground and look at the sky. The interactive map should help find the direction of radiation. The higher the radiation over the horizon line, the more meteorites it will see.
- Meteor rain usually arises at the point where radiation is, but can be seen anywhere in the sky.
