Beautiful Time Lapse Video of the Perseid Meteor Shower
by Kristel Hayes on September 10, 2010
Did you have a chance to see the Perseid Meteor Shower last month? If weather, or just plain need for sleep got in your way (it did for some of us), you missed an incredible show, that lasted from August 11-13, with as many as 100 meteors crossing the sky every hour.
Here’s a gorgeous time lapse video of the that paints a pretty incredible picture. These photos were shot from August 12-15 in Joshua Tree National Park by Henry Jun Wah Lee.
