The Camelopardalids meteor shower this Friday is going to be one of those events that happens only once in hundreds of years. Hundreds of meteors will be raining down on Earth every hour.... Don't worry, we are in no danger. These are small chunks, which will burn up in the Earth's atmosphere, and will give us a spectacular show. The main body of the comet already passed us, and we will just be passing through the comet's tail. This show is brought to you by the planet Jupiter, which nudged the comet on a trajectory towards Earth. Enjoy the show.
