Shooting Stars

This weekend, prepare for a spectacular show in the night skies in Upstate New York. The Perseids meteor shower will reach its peak this Saturday and Sunday.

We are in luck because as we celebrate Earth Day on Saturday there will be a dazzling display in the night sky known as the Lyrids meteor shower. The Lyrids are known to produce plenty of fireballs and shooting stars.

2020 has been good for one thing and that is the spectacular views in the night sky. There is a meteor shower that will happen this Sunday night that we could possibly see up to one hundred shooting stars. Here's how to watch.

Get ready because late tonight and into the early morning hours, you can look to the sky to see a spectacular meteor shower. Here are the details.

The Lyrid meteor show is happening right now throughout the night sky. It is a spectacular display in the sky and is best visible a certain night this week.

Of course most everyone knows that "shooting stars" are really just meteors flying across the night sky but we also know that seeing one is rare. Not tonight. Tonight will be one of the best chances to see what is being called the best Perseids shower in a very long time. In fact there will be nearly double the amount as in a usual shower. There should be about 200 meteors per hour! Read

Have you ever laid in a field of grass with your hands behind your head, closed your eyes and wished upon a shooting star?
