November 16 and 17 over Crimea — the largest starfall
CrimeaPRESS reports:
On Saturday and Sunday, November 16-17, residents of Crimea will be able to see one of the largest starfalls. Writes about this «Crimean newspaper».
We are talking about the Leonids meteor shower. It is highly intense.
This year’s meteor shower peaks around the full moon, so comets will be heavily illuminated by moonlight,” noted researcher at the Crimean Astrophysical Observatory Sergei Nazarov.
As the scientist explained, the Moon will interfere with observing the cosmic phenomenon. In order to better see the celestial bodies, the expert advised to go outside the city. According to him, this will avoid light exposure of the sky.
