This weekend Earth might plow through an unusual cometary debris stream.
The resulting meteor shower could be intense, although it's unlikely 
that many people will see it. The best viewing spots are Antarctica and 
the International Space Station.  Scientists are interested in this 
shower because its source is a long period comet--one of a class of 
objects that can pass uncomfortably close to our planet with little warning.
