You go outside, you freeze, you look up, and if you are lucky, you see a streak of light. You say "Ooh," and then you go back inside because it is December and you are cold. But if you look at the physics of what is actually happening, it is not a show. It is a collision. And it is a collision that happens with such terrifying mechanical precis
