Leonid Meteor Shower 2009: Peak Time

For those of you who want to see the 2009 Leonid meteor shower at its best, tomorrow is said to be the best time to witness that. According to reports from examiner.com, the Leonid meteor shower is said to peak on Tuesday, 17th November.
And what could possibly make it even better, is the fact that the Moon will coincidentally be in its new phase tomorrow, so it will set the stage for what could possibly be one of the best Leonid meteor showers in recent years.
Earth is said to be passing through one of the denser debris streams at around 4 AM EST (1 AM PST), on Tuesday (tomorrow). So if you only have an hour or less to watch it, then you may possibly want to center it around that time.
