What is a meteor shower and what causes it?

Meteor showers are the increased level of meteoroids striking Earth's atmosphere as the planet passes through belts of higher meteoroid concentration, normally caused by the passage of a larger object such as a comet. The two main belts that intersect Earth's orbit are: - the Leonids around November 17 (in the orbit of the comet Temple-Tuttle) - the Perseids around August 12 (in the orbit of the comet Swift-Tuttle)
