Hey Perplexity!

What causes a meteor shower?

“Meteor showers occur when Earth passes through trails of debris left by comets or asteroids. As the Earth orbits the Sun, it intersects these streams of meteoroids, which are often sand-sized particles.

When these meteoroids enter the atmosphere at high speeds, they burn up, creating bright streaks of light known as meteors.

Meteor showers typically happen at specific times each year, corresponding to the Earth’s orbit through denser parts of these debris streams.”
