COSMIC MESSAGE

Tonight, thousands of icy rocks will hurl toward Earth in a fascinating display of light called the Leonid Meteor Shower. There is little danger, as few will reach the ground. Meteor showers result from debris left by passing comets. The Leonids are small pieces of Comet Tempel-Tuttle.
