Meteors may be spotted zipping through the sky on the longest night of the year
Meteors may be spotted zipping through the sky like shooting stars on Wednesday evening - the longest night of the year.
However, it will be visible from December 17 until December 26, meaning that you may have a chance to spot it during the winter solstice - which falls on Wednesday, December 21. The bright streak that we see as a "shooting star" is actually "glowing hot air" as a space rock "zips through the atmosphere", NASA says.
Unfortunately during the peak days, which will occur on Thursday and Friday, there is a good chance that the spectacle will be clouded over thanks to "wintery" conditions up north.
