The annual Perseid meteor shower is expected to put on a good show this week for those willing to get up in the wee hours of the morning and wait patiently for the shooting stars.
In North America, the best time to watch will be between midnight to 5 a.m. on Wednesday, Aug. 12, but late Tuesday night and also Wednesday night could prove fruitful, weather permitting.
The Perseids are always reliable, and sometimes rather spectacular. The only things that puts a damper on the August show are bad weather or bright moonlight. Unfortunately this week, as the Perseidsreach their peak Tuesday and Wednesday nights, the moon will behigh in the sky, outshining the fainter meteors.
IF YOU'VE NEVER DONE THIS YOU OWE IT TO YOURSELF. PERFECT DATE EXPERIENCE
UP HIGH ON A HILL OR A MOUNTAIN OR AT THE BEACH
ENJOY
