The Perseid meteor shower is an annual event that occurs when Earth passes through the debris trail left by Comet Swift-Tuttle.
This cosmic dust and small rocks burn up upon entering Earth’s atmosphere, creating bright streaks of light across the sky.
The Perseids are renowned for their frequency, often producing 50 to 100 meteors per hour at their peak, and their bright,
fast meteors that leave glowing trails, making them a favourite for both amateur and seasoned stargazers.
After a 40-minute drive, I arrived at Pantai Malindo at 9.40pm.
To my surprise, many people were already there, waiting for the meteor shower.
As I gazed at the sea, I noticed several green lights glowing on the horizon, spreading out into the night sky.
