  • Several Perseid meteors, including two especially bright ones, streak across the sky over Mount Shuksan in the North Cascades of Washington state. The Perseids are an annual meteor shower that occurs in August when Earth passes through the debris of Comet 109P/Swift-Tuttle. The meteors are comet debris burning up in the Earth's atmosphere.

  • Two bright Perseid meteors streak across the night sky above Table Mountain in the North Cascades of Washington state. The Perseids are an annual meteor shower that occurs in August when Earth passes through the debris of Comet 109P/Swift-Tuttle. The meteors are comet debris burning up in the Earth's atmosphere. Table Mountain is a 5,742-foot (1,750-meter) peak that is comprised of an ancient, thick lava flow that pre-dates flows from the neighboring active volcano, Mount Baker.

  • A couple of bright meteors, part of the Camelopardalid Meteor Shower, streak across Swakane Canyon in central Washington state. The weak meteor shower, which originated from dust from comet 209P/LINEAR, resulted in a peak display of between 5 and 10 meteors per hour in late May, 2014.

  • A meteor from the Perseid meteor shower streaks along the Milky Way, which appears to erupt from Mount Baker in Washington state. The Perseids are an annual meteor shower that occurs in August when Earth passes through the debris of Comet 109P/Swift-Tuttle. The meteors are comet debris burning up in the Earth's atmosphere. Mount Baker, which stands 10,781 feet (3,286 meters), is an active volcano with the second-most thermally active crater in the Cascade Range.

  • Comet C/2020 F3 (NEOWISE) and a meteor shine in the night sky over Mount Rainier in Washington state. Comet NEOWISE is a long-period comet and its current orbital path will take about 6,800 years to complete. Its nucleus is about 3 miles (5 kilometers) across and is covered with sooty, dark particles left over from its formation near the birth of our solar system 4.6 billion years ago. Mount Rainier, which has a summit of 14,411 feet (4,392 meters), is the highest mountain in Washington state and largest volcano in the Cascade Range.

  • Mount Rainier, the tallest mountain in the Cascade Range, is rendered in near silhouette as Comet C/2020 F3 (NEOWISE) and noctilucent clouds provide some light in the twilight sky in this view from High Rock in Washington state. Comet NEOWISE is a long-period comet and its current orbital path will take about 6,800 years to complete. Its nucleus is about 3 miles (5 kilometers) across and is covered with sooty, dark particles left over from its formation near the birth of our solar system 4.6 billion years ago.
