Meteor shower in the sky
The meteor season is into full swing over the next few days as the Perseid meteor shower reaches its peak over the nights of 11-12 and 12-13 August. If we can blot out some of the Moon?s light behind a tree or nearby building, we can see at least one meteor per minute.
Perseids , gets the name from constellation Perseus. The warm summer nights in UK will make the Perseids more visible.
Some Perseids can be as bright as the brightest stars, such as Vega or as Jupiter or even as Venus. Some leave behind lingering orange trails or on odd occasions appear as fireballs. You either record these events or sit back and just enjoy.
