First Meteor Shower of 2011

"The first meteor display of 2011 – the annual Quadrantid meteor shower – will hit its peak tonight and, weather permitting, could dazzle observers across the Northern Hemisphere, skywatchers say."

It's amazing in scope, this thing we call reality.

I wonder if all meteor showers occur naturally or if maybe sometimes they appear because of conditions that occur within that which connects all humans together. Could some showers be aliens saying, "here we are--this is a subtle sign for you."

Maybe I have an over-active imagination :mrgreen:
