Last night I was outside at 5 freezing o'clock. I had told Emily that I would go outside with her, but she would have to wake me up. (I was sort of hoping she wouldn't, but she did) It was awesome. Wearing sweatshirts, dragging blankets and pillows, we went outside and climbed on the frost covered trampoline and watched the sky. It was some great Mom and Daughter bonding time, as well as a spectacular sky show. We shivered under the blankets for about 40 minutes. Just about every time we we ready to go in the house, it would seem another round of "streaks" would start, one right after another. We could not keep count of the number of steaks we saw. At times there were 5 or 6 happening within a second or two of the previous one. Emily had two questions that I could not answer. I told her we would have to look up the answers. But I would gladly cheat and get the answers from anyone out there in the know about these things. 1. How are scientist able to predict these events down to the specific times?? 2. How do they know how far above the earth these things are happening?? The new family favorite quote, said in such innocence and amazement, said by Emily last night was. "Mom, they just seem to come from out of no where."
