Perseid Meteor Shower: how to see the show of the best shooting stars of the year

Every year, the summer sky is illuminated by the Perseid meteor shower. It is formed as a result of the passage of the Earth through a plume of dust particles released by the Swift — Tuttle comet. These particles burn up in the Earth's atmosphere, forming a star shower.

How not miss this event? Here are some tips:

  1. The peak of meteorites can be observed in the morning of August 11, 12, and 13. 
  2. To see most meteors, look at the sky after midnight, but before dawn. 
  3. Observe in the shadow of the moonlight. 
  4. Look at the sky for at least an hour, because meteorites fall in jerks. 
  5. All meteors fall from one point in the sky, so you can follow the path of meteors in the opposite direction and see how they appear.
