Perseid Meteor Shower Guide | San Diego News
Description
Get ready for a cosmic fireworks display—the Perseid meteor shower is back, and this year’s conditions are nearly perfect. With peak viewing under a new moon and potential sightings of 30 to 100 meteors per hour, you’re in for a dazzling show. Caused by Earth slicing through debris from comet Swift-Tuttle (which won’t return until 2125), these ancient meteors have been lighting up the sky for over 2,000 years. Best viewed away from city lights between midnight and dawn, with your eyes adjusted, and watching as they streak from the constellation Perseus—just remember: no moonlight means clearer skies and brighter trails. It’s simple, serene, and spectacular.
