Perseid Meteor Shower Prime Viewing | Chattanooga News

The Perseid meteor shower is back with a dazzling show—potentially 50 to 100 meteors per hour for northern viewers, or 30 to 50 from rural spots. Caused by Earth slicing through debris from comet Swift-Tuttle (next return: 100 years), this annual spectacle peaks under perfect viewing conditions: a new moon means no moonlight interference, and warm temps let you lounge outside comfortably. To catch the magic, head away from city lights, let your eyes adjust for 30 minutes, focus on a sky patch, and keep your phone put away—every streak counts.
