Image description

Stars outnumber Perseid meteors lighting up the night sky of the al-Azraq desert, 70 km (45 miles) east of Amman, in the early hours of August 13, 2002 , at the height of a meteor storm that was clearly visible to the naked eye in several parts of Europe, the Middle East and Asia. Meteors are the debris left in the wake of a passing comet infiltrating the Earth's atmosphere. The Perseid meteor shower is sparked every August when Earth passes through a stream of space grit left behind by Comet Swift-Tuttle. ??? taken with 800 Asa film with 3 minute exposure
