Perseid Meteor Shower This Weekend | Chicago News

Don’t miss this year’s Perseid meteor shower—peak viewing tonight into tomorrow morning, thanks to a rare new moon cutting out lunar glare. Caused by debris from Comet Swift-Tuttle, these shooting stars light up the sky as tiny space rocks burn up in our atmosphere. Best seen before dawn, far from city lights, no telescope needed—just patience and a clear sky. And if you miss it? The Orionids are coming in October for another cosmic show.
