According to NASA, it's going to be the best meteor shower of the year on August 12th.
The Perseid meteor shower is often considered to be the best meteor shower of the year due to its high rates and pleasant late-summer temperatures, according to NASA.
“People in the U.S. can reasonably expect to see around 40 Perseids in the hour just before dawn on the peak nights. That’s about one every couple of minutes, which is not bad,” said Bill Cooke, who leads NASA’s Meteoroid Environment Office. “However, we are assuming you are out in the country, well away from cities and suburbs.”
Weather permitting, you’ll have the best view of the Perseids in the Northern Hemisphere between midnight and dawn, but early Perseids are already being spotted.
