Did any one else see a falling star last night (7-1-07) about 8:30-9:00pm PacificTime?

Question

it was looking South West
in California

Answer 1

Hi. Meteors are a local event. The burn up high in the atmosphere overhead. Since you were looking southwest there were probably lots of people within range, but very few ever look up. Glad you saw it! If it had been southeast there would have been a larger number of people.
