The famous meteor shower will light up our skies!
"Here come the Perseids! Get ready for an incredible stargazing showcase as the annual Perseids meteor shower graces our night skies from July 23rd through August 17th. This celestial event is a true seasonal delight, as particles from the Swift-Tuttle comet hurtle through the atmosphere, creating a stunning display of shooting stars.
Whether you're an avid stargazer or a casual sky-watcher, the Perseids are not to be missed. On the best nights, you could spot up to 100 meteors per hour as they blaze across the inky blackness, painting the heavens with their otherworldly glow. Find a cozy spot outdoors, settle in, and get ready to be awed by this cosmic spectacle.
With the Night Sky app as your guide, you'll be able to pinpoint the Perseids' peak activity, identify the best vantage points, and learn fascinating facts about the shower's origins. So grab a blanket, dim the lights, and get ready to experience the magic of the Perseids - one of nature's most dazzling celestial displays."
