BOSTON (WHDH) -- Star-gazers who stayed up late Thursday night and early Friday morning saw quite the show.

The streaks of light were from an annual meteor shower.

Some of the streaks may have been meteors carried along by a comet.

It was the first time the comet’s debris field crossed the earth’s orbit.
