Surges Of Up To 100 Meteors Per Hour Will Light Up The Southern California Skies During The 2020 Lyrid Meteor This April
No matter what may be happening in the world, one thing is for certain — the stars in the sky are always here for us to enjoy and observe. Now more than ever it’s important to pause and take in the beauty that’s all around us. Which makes this upcoming meteor shower happening in April even more special.
The next meteor shower is right around the corner and you won't want to miss it.
Each spring the Lyrid Meteor Shower lights up the night sky and it's happening again this year between April 15 and April 25, 2020. Peak visibility is on the evening of April 22.
Although there are plenty of meteor showers to enjoy throughout the year, one thing that makes this one so unique is that it's the oldest recorded meteor shower ever witnessed over 2,700 years ago! It's remarkable that we get to enjoy this magnificent event year after year.
During the Lyrid Meteor Shower, you can expect to see surges of up to 100 meteors per hour. Make sure to keep your eyes on the sky so you can enjoy this spectacular show.
The best way to view a meteor shower is from an area that's extremely dark without a lot of excessive light in the area. Campgrounds and parks are especially suitable for the best viewing possible. Just kick back and enjoy the show.
