 Photographers use tripods to take pictures of Leonid meteors lighting up the night sky of the desert near Amman, in the early hours of August 12, 2002, at the height of a meteor storm that was clearly visible to the naked eye in several parts of the Middle East and Asia. Meteors are the debris left in the wake of a passing comet infiltrating the Earth's atmosphere.The Perseid meteor shower is sparked every August when Earth passes through a stream of space grit left behind by the Comet Swift-Tuttle.
