Perseid Meteor Shower Peaks in August
Happy August! Want to know when's the best time to watch the 2013 Perseid meteor shower? Read on.
Every August, the Perseid meteor shower comes to play. Its peak night is Monday, August 12, when we could see up to 100 meteors an hour.
I typically always set an alarm for stupid o'clock in the morning, shiver and get a crick in my neck. However, our resident astronomer Aaron Turner tells me I don't need to do that this year.
