Clouds hampered our viewing of the Geminid meteor shower peak last night. However, we managed to capture a few images before viewing was obscured.

Hello NASA Here in the South of england (UK) we keep getting big/huge bursts of lights in the sky second night now since its been happening, Was wondering if this could be the cause? As there was no thunder or lightning bolts just the whole sky brightening up. Last night was some Wired distant thunder quite high up followed by hail so thought it was just a storm. Until today when we saw a massive bust of light which has our local media asking questions. So just wondering if this is still happening or is something else is happening in space?
