The Great Meteor Procession

By Horace A Smith

On the evening of February 9, 1913, a dazzling stream of fireballs astonished onlookers from the cold prairies of Canada to the tropical South Atlantic Ocean. This book follows the century-long effort to understand the nature of this Great Meteor Procession. Satellites, saints, scientists, spaceships, and spacerocks enter the tale as the story unfolds. Related phenomena, including the great fireballs of 1783 and 1860, bring the 1913 event into context, and introduce Walt Whitman's poetry to the story.
