Eta Aquarids Meteor Shower

The waning gibbous moon will block out many of the fainter meteors this year. Best viewing will be from a dark location after midnight. This shower peaks annually from April 19 to May 28, and is known for producing up to 60 meteors per hour in the Southern Hemisphere and about 30 per hour in the Northern Hemisphere. Originating from comet Halley, these meteors radiate from the constellation Aquarius but are visible across the sky.
