Catch the Perseids! The year’s most popular meteor shower is perfectly timed with a new Moon and warm summer nights. The shower peaks the night of the 12th thru the morning of the 13th. Start watching about 11pm when the constellation Perseus rises over the northeastern horizon. From a dark sky site location, you’ll see a dazzling display with as many as 1 per minute. Let us know how many you see!
