BEIJING: This year's biggest Leonid meteor shower fell in China in the early morning of November 18. Experts predict viewers may see 30 to 300 shooting stars an hour depending on observation venues.
The best observation time for Chinese people would be at 5:40 am this morning, but viewers could see the meteor shower during daytime. Viewers could choose a best place to watch where sky is clean -- no clouds, no light, no pollution, good air quality -- experts suggest.
