Perseid Meteor Shower Peaked on August 10 up to 13, 2014 (+Video)

Sunday, August 10, 2014 12:49

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.

It’s that time of year again, the Perseid meteor shower is about to peak. The shower officially peaks between August 10 and August 13, and this year it happens to coincide with a supermoon.

The Perseid meteor shower is one of the brightest and most consistent meteor showers we see. They appear to come from the direction of the Perseus constellation, which the meteor shower is named after. The Perseid meteors fall when Earth passes through the trail of debris left behind by the comet Swift-Tuttle. During the shower’s peak, stargazers can expect to see 60 to 100 meteors per hour.
