      Unfortunately not! I hope you did though!

      There are lots of meteor showers that occur throughout the year- the ones that I usually make sure I don’t miss are the Perseids in August. This meteor shower is particularly impressive, with up to 100 meteors an hour 🙂

    Yes I did! The Lyrid meteor shower! I could only see them from my back garden in Oxford where there is too much light pollution. Best advice for meteor showers is to ask your parents/guardians to take you to the countryside where there is very little light from any cities.
