- Perseid Meteor Shower Viewing
The Perseid Meteor shower is in full swing. Sky conditions should be great as they were last night. The moon rises at about a quarter past 11 pm tonight which might interfer slightly with viewing let’s say from midnight on.
Meteor showers are the result of the earth passing through bits of debris left in a comet path. The Perseids appear every August as the earth crosses the path of comet Swift-Tuttle.
