Are you sure? I heard it was to average 1 meteor per every 2+ minutes. :headscratch:

Huh?   Haley went by way back in 1986.  Almost 30 years ago for them every 76 year flybys near Earth.  Can you be more specific on what type of debris?

More likely from the dust etc from the tail...Even though Mr Haley's comet is quite a distance away, the debris from the tail still orbits the same path...

So let's do the math genius. 60 mins/2+ mins = < 30

Considering thus, could there be 25 in an hour?
