Perseid Meteor Shower Peak This Year | Detroit News

Get ready for the sky’s biggest summer show—the Perseid meteor shower, NASA’s top pick for the year. Peaking August 12-13, it’s fueled by cosmic dust from comet Swift-Tuttle (next return: 2025) and delivers dazzling streaks with no moonlight to spoil the view. Head to a dark spot, let your eyes adjust for 30 minutes, and watch as meteors blaze across the night sky—best seen between midnight and dawn when constellation Perseus is overhead. And yes, leave the phone behind. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
