The next few days will be the best time to see the most spectacular shooting stars of the year! The Perseid meteor shower passes the earth every year in July or August. If the sky is dark with little cloud you’ll be able to see 60-100 shooting stars per hour. The best time to look out for them is just before dawn on Friday the 14th when there’ll be a new moon. Just gaze up at the sky in a north-easterly direction.

Here’s hoping for cloudless skies and the ability to stay up a little bit later then usual! 🙂
