Will Tonight's Sky Dazzle with Shooting Stars?
from GREY Journal Daily News Podcast
The Southern Delta Aquariid and Alpha Capricornid meteor showers are peaking tonight and into tomorrow morning, with optimal viewing conditions expected due to a quarter moon. Observers in areas with low light pollution may see 20 to 30 meteors per hour. Meteor showers occur when Earth passes through comet debris, and these events are named for their apparent origin points in the sky. The Perseid meteor shower will peak in early August but may be less visible due to a full moon. NASA recommends watching from dark locations, lying flat facing east, and allowing eyes to adjust for 30 minutes.Learn more on this news by visiting us at: https://greyjournal.net/news/ Hosted on Acast.
