Perseid Meteor Shower

GOOD NEWSS!! 
Check this out. Don't miss this event. It will be a great pleasure to those who love astronomical event 💙💙

- Perseid meteor shower
When: Aug. 12-13

The Perseid meteor shower is regularly one of the top three meteor showers of the year, and the 2020 showing in mid-August will be much better than the one from 2019.

Unlike in 2019 when the nearly full moon filled the sky with light, the moon will be in the sky for only the last part of the night, allowing stargazers to see as many as 100 meteors per hour.

“Perseids are not only numerous; they are beautiful. Most of the meteors leave a glittering trail as they pass,” AccuWeather Astronomy Blogger Dave Samuhel said. “They are multi-colored and many are bright!”
