The Perseids Are Here!

The Perseid meteors can be seen each night (when the sky conditions are appropriate) over the next few weeks. The Perseids will peak the early morning of August 12th, which will offer the best viewing, assuming the sky is clear. If you can't catch them early Tuesday morning, the few days before and after should also provide a good opportunity. The time to watch is after midnight, during the predawn hours when the moon goes down. Enjoy!
