The New Year is kicking off with one of the most fascinating celestial shows that can be seen with the human eye: a meteor shower. <br />Unfortunately for our international viewers, it won't be visible in some parts of the world.<br />However, those of us in Korea should be able to get a decent view of it on Friday and Saturday night.<br />Lee Seung-jae reports. <br />As the Earth revolves around the sun,... it passes through cosmic debris.<br />And if you're lucky,... you might be able to catch the result: colorful meteor showers that light up the night sky.<br />If you're in Korea,... meteor showers will brighten the night skies starting Friday night.<br />This meteor shower will be all the more special,... as it's known as a Quandrantids. Compared with most other meteor showers,... these are unusual as they are thought to have originated from a passing asteroid.<br />Although they tend to be fainter,... the moonless night sky should help people view the phenomenon.<br /><br />" You'll be able see about two showers a minute, but that's during ideal conditions. To see more meteors, it's best to go to a place without much light pollution..."<br /><br />Experts say it's best to use your naked eye to watch as binoculars and telescopes tend to limit your field of view. <br />Finding a location that has a clear view of the entire night sky is key.<br />Ideally, somewhere with dark skies, away from city lights and traffic.<br />Lee Seung-jae, Arirang News. <br />
