A stunning long-exposure photograph captures the intense second peak of the 2023 Leonid meteor shower over the SoBaekSan National Observatory in Korea. Dozens of bright meteors streak across the sky above the silhouetted observatory dome, visible even during the 40-minute exposure. Observers reported an astonishing rate of over one meteor per second during this outburst.
