BELARUS-SCIENCE-ASTRONOMY-METEOR-PERSEID

Shooting stars cross the night sky over a wooden idol near the village of Ptich some 25km away from Minsk, during the peak of the annual Perseid meteor shower on August 15, 2015. The Perseid meteor shower occurs every year when the earth passes through the cloud of debris left by Comet Swift-Tuttle. The showers are named after the constellation of Perseus, the hero from Greek mythology who beheaded the snake-headed Medusa to save the princess Andromeda.
