Tonight Brings the Peak of the Perseid Meteor Shower

Every August, Mother Nature gives us a wonderful display of shooting stars. This year, there's a new moon which means no moonlight to make things difficult to see. Tonight should be the most active night of all.

Between three and four o'clock tomorrow (Thursday) morning, around 100 meteors are expected to shoot across the sky.

Find a place where you can see the stars tonight and you've got a pretty good shot of seeing a falling star/meteor. If going outside in the middle of the night isn't up your alley, you can watch the live stream below, beginning at 9 tonight.

Below is a very quick video of a meteor from last week. Happy hunting tonight.
