Peak of the Brightest and Most Abundant Meteor Shower of the Summer

August 12, 2024

On the night of August 12th, the peak of the brightest and most abundant meteor shower of the summer began – from sunset to dawn, up to 100 meteors per hour can be observed. According to astronomers, the Moon will set below the horizon around midnight, not hindering the view, and the meteor shower will be visible to the naked eye. It's best to move away from houses and other sources of light. You can enjoy it even after the peak: the meteor shower should be visible for about two more weeks.
