Perseid Meteor Shower Seen Over Greece

Just a couple of weeks ago in mid-August 2017, Greece got to witness the annual Perseid meteor shower lighting of the starry skies. The video below from The Guardian shows the shower near the archaeological site of Mesimvria outside Alexandroupoli in northern Greece.

“As the meteors burn up, they can appear as green, white or orange streaks across the sky.”
