With a new moon, this most spectacular of annual meteor showers will be even more visible this year!
For my locale the Clear Sky Clock indicates that conditions should be nearly optimal. I’m thinking of popping up to Brasstown Bald for a chance to see this wonder of nature in as pristine conditions as we can get here in Georgia.
The peak meteor frequency is expected to be at about 1:00 am so it won’t be an early night that’s for sure.
For more details check out the Wikipedia entry as well as Space.com’s Sky calendar.
