Calling all stargazers in Idaho! Don't miss the celestial extravaganza this July - meteor showers, full Moon, Saturn, and Neptune sightings. Plan a camping trip for the best views!
The celestial event many in the scientific community refer to as the best annual light show of the year in North America will hit its peak tonight (August 11) and Thursday.
The shower gets its name from the fact the meteors appear to originate from the Perseus Constellation. The shower can be viewed across the United States and Canada, and parts of Europe as well.
The upcoming total solar eclipse over Idaho on August 21 is getting all the press, but there's another sky event happening right now. And, it reaches its peak this weekend.
One of the best meteor showers of the year is coming soon, and this year is going to be even more special. This August, there will be double the amount of meteors at the peak of the Perseid shower.
