Despite the many positive-sounding meteor shower forecast, the Camelopardalid Meteor Shower 2014 failed to make a huge impression as it only peaked at five to ten meteors per hour on Saturday.

Even if it did not meet the usual levels of outstanding meteor storm presentations that many expected to see, there were still amazing photos of the first ever Camelopardalid Meteor shower sent to Space.com. According to Christian Science Monitor, some of the best views were taken by audiences from Indiana, Toronto and Canada's northern lights.

The predictions made of the odd meteor shower from experts from NASA and SETI states that it had all the potential to offer its best at 200 meteors per hour. However, it was also emphasized that due to its unfamiliar nature, it could naturally die down early on its own too. The new shower was reported to have only shown about five to ten meteors per hour only, reports Space.com.

"The parent comet, 209P/LINEAR, is faint and currently produces only a small amount of dust," Astronomer Tony Phillips explained in an update published by Spaceweather.com. The expert added that its less than impressive show should not surprise anyone at all.

IBT also mentions that Friday was more of a big night then for the comet 209P/LINEAR as it was the closest position it got to Earth for this year. The international organization of observatories, Slooh, specifically states that it was 7.6 million miles away from Earth on the said night.

The Camelopardalid Meteor Shower 2014 got its name from a constellation it radiates from, called the Camelopardalais or The Giraffe. It is made out of the dust leftovers of the comet first discovered way back in 2004. It is believed to orbit around the sun too only once every five years, as researched by Space.Com.
