How many shooting stars have you seen in your life so far?

Thousands. One night while camping in Big Bend National Park in December in the late 1970s, I was sleeping out under the stars and the moon was so bright that when it set, I woke up. I saw a shooting star, then another, and another. I started counting, but gave up several hours later when I reached 300. I stayed awake until dawn when I could no longer see them. The meteor shower was the Geminids which occurs in December of each year. It was an amazing night. Most meteor showers are visible when you are in a dark place. Where I was camping was at least 10 miles from the closest person, or light, so it was extremely dark, and the Milky Way was very visible.
