Are perseid meteor showers bad?

Question

ok there is one happening this year and im not sure if it is cool good or fine or bad??

Answer 1

They are ok, but only if you stay in them for less than 20 minutes.  Any more than that and they will burn holes in your skin and you will never get another date FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIFE.

Answer 2

perseid meteor showers are good to watch. they're usually fairly clear, and you can see a lot of meteors. i've had a good experience watching these.

Answer 3

They are cool!!!

Answer 4

It happens every year.  Has it been bad before?  We pass throught the Perseid Meteor Field every year in Mid August.  Has anything happened before?  Of course not.  nothing out of the ordinary.

IF you are outside, after dark, AND especially, if you are far from lots of lights to mess up your vision, you will probably see some shooting stars.  The meteors burn in the atmosphere, you see, and create these lovely trails of fire behind them, and they are best seen at about 4:00AM, and far from cities.

You know the line in Rocky Mountain High, about seeing fire in the sky?  That's what John Denver was talking about.  He and his friends went camping out near Maroon Bells, and stayed up all night, and they happened to witness one of the most beautiful shows of the meteors.

Now go to bed and quit worrying about nothing!

Answer 5

They are cool to see.

Answer 6

If you can actually see the meteor shower then it would be okay to watch while goofing around with friends while eating Doritos and drinking Mountain Dew. But it always seems like the skies are overcast those nights so I have to have a Plan B to fill up the time.

Answer 7

They're not bad, they're AWESOME.  Me and my boyfriend have watched them together... very cool.

Answer 8

It's cool if you can watch them.  Nothing to be worried about.
