Picture shows the Perseid Meteors shower by the Holy Island of Lindisfarne,Northumberland on August 9th 2016.
The Perseid meteor shower takes place each year through July and August and is the result of particles falling from the Comet Swift-Tuttle, which orbits the sun every 133 years and was first seen in 1862.
The trail of particles forms meteors, or shooting stars as they are also known, which heat up as they enter the EarthÕs atmosphere creating tails of light across the sky. These specific meteors travel at a speed of 132,000 miles per hour and are called Perseids due to the way in which they appear to streak away from the Perseus Constellation
