I tried to catch one of these about 15 years ago but it ended up being a bust -- they really are a once in a lifetime event so after the game go outside and look up. _______ Rare and Stunning 'Unicorn Meteor Shower' Could Light Up the Skies Tonight Two meteor experts are predicting that hundreds of meteors will grace the skies tonight (Nov. 21) in a rare event known as the "unicorn" meteor shower. The alpha Monocerotid meteor shower happens every year between Nov. 21 and Nov. 23, but it typically lights up the sky with only a couple of meteors. It is unofficially dubbed the "unicorn" meteor shower because it can be seen in the night sky near the unicorn constellation, or Monoceros, according to CNN. These meteors originate in the dust trail from an unknown long-period comet, or a comet that takes over 200 years to travel one time around the sun. Once in a while, this mysterious comet's trail of dust gets extra close to Earth's orbit and can create a bonanza of meteors, NASA's Ames Research Center scientist Peter Jenniskens and the Finnish Fireball Network's Esko Lyytinen wrote in a short technical paper. And conditions are right for just such a bumper crop of meteors to show up tomorrow, they said. https://www.livescience.com/amp/unicorn-meteor-shower.html

I think I heard around 11:50 to midnight is the window you want to look up at. Anywhere with the least amount of light is better (evacuate to Katy?). Obviously if you could head to a small town, it would be better. Brazosbend state park would probably be the ultimate. It's about an hour drive.
First you get the meteor, then you get the sugar, then you get the power, then you get the women? Not to be confused with Night of the Lepus, one of the awesomest bad movies ever made
@KingCheetah please atone. (students sent me that after I told them to go look for the meteors last night. )
