The Perseid shower has been active since mid-July and is expected to continue until the end of August.
The Perseid meteor shower can be seen in the sky over Ukraine. Starfall can be observed from mid-July to the end of August, but its peak activity occurs on August 11-12. The American newspaper The New York Times wrote about it on Saturday, August 10.
It is indicated that it is better to watch the starfall from the northern hemisphere before dawn.
According to Michel Nichols, director of public observation at the Adler Planetarium in Chicago, in search of cosmic spectacles, you should stop using telescopes or binoculars to observe the meteorite shower and just peer into the sky with your eyes.
“You just need eyes and, if possible, dark skies,” he said.
Some showers were quite intense, according to the American Meteor Society. Up to 100 meteors can be seen every hour.
Bright, fast-moving Perseid fireballs appear in the constellation Perseus in the northern sky.
We remind you that earlier an astronomer recorded a meteorite falling on the Moon.
