Wonder up in the Brunei sky

Brunei residents who prepared for an early morning stargazing feasted their eyes on the cosmic spectacle of the Leonid meteor shower yesterday. Astronomers say Asia had the best viewing spots although the spectacle was expected to be seen from all over the planet. They also expected it to be a show of celestial proportions, rivalling the massive display of shooting stars in 1833, but cloudy weather spoiled the stargazing for some in Asia.
