When is the last time you saw a shooting star?

When I last watched the Perseids Meteor Shower.

I saw many of them... beautiful.💫
Perhaps I've just been inordinately lucky, or in need of a dozen wishes fulfilled;
but every time I lift my eyes skyward, another star falls.

There's the streaking speeders, or angry red fireballs, that seem to delight in taking me unawares.

But every so often, appear the cloudy white orbs that kiss the rooftops, then softly fade to ether.
Just to keep you believing in the magic in the moonlight; and wishing on a star.

@SethGreene531 The fireballs with their shimmering tails are one of the most amazing things to see!
@StarLily Oh Yes, aren't they magnificent?

Sometimes embers trail off the tail, scattered across the sky.
It’s been a long time since I looked at night sky .. 🥹

Many years ago. I live in the middle of a big city. From my bedroom window I can see the moon and sometimes one star. Most I have ever seen is 3 stars.

We saw an...what would you call it? A burning up asteroid last year, around tea time. That was fascinating!

A couple of months ago. Around November is a fairly common time for them.

This is not a question about a Marshall, is it?

A long time ago
I don't really remember the last meteors I saw, but I've seen a comet in the last couple of years I think
