Image via WikipediaThe 2010 Perseid meteor shower - which happens every year about this time for 2000 years and occurs in the constellation Perseus the Breaker, hence its name - wowed that part of the World that stayed up to see it; not this blogger. Fortunately, YouTuber alatafelis in Japan was up and captured the spectacular time lapse video, then set it to mood music.
2010 Perseid meteor shower wows the World.
According to SPACE.com, the 2010 Perseid meteor shower was seen around the World:
Iran: "In Iran, the Perseid meteor shower was great," said Mohammad Reza Zaman Sani.
USA - Florida: "There would be a few minutes of nothing, then 1, 2, 3 in a row," explained Anthony at the website Meteorobs.
Norway - "We had a nice show in Norway even though the sky was still not completely dark," explained Runar Sandnes for Spaceweather.com.
Robert Roy Britt, SPACE.com editor in chief, said "I counted 20 Perseids in a 20-minute period starting at 4:10 a.m. Most were faint, but two were as bright as Jupiter, leaving brief vapor trails that marked their path."
2010 Perseid meteor shower and God
The 2010 Perseid meteor shower has some spiritual meaning, because when I happened to Google "meteor shower God" what came up were recent references to the 2010 Perseid meteor shower. A number of search results where people said that the planet was made by God, or variations of that, or someone writing "God knows," and so on.
But it's hard to find a definitive spiritual meaning of a meteor shower. Dreamsmeaning.com explains that "Seeing a meteor shower in your dream indicates romantic thoughts," but does that mean seeing one in person is the best time to get it on?
When it comes to meteor showers, they're tied to events in religion, but, and unlike the Double Rainbow, which has meaning and says that you're blessed by God, the meteor shower doesn't seem to have one that is accepted by many.
