Took me way too long to realize that was German.

Came in to go to bed and I saw this article. I saw 3 separate shooting stars tonight and had no idea there was something happening. So cool, and so lucky I was outside tonight.

Can't wait, should be clear tonight and tomorrow, plus the moon is behaving this year.
