NEWBIE: WATCH THE PERSEID METEOR SHOWER - NIGHT DRIVE

‘Fireballs’ will shoot over the UAE this week, as an annual Perseid meteor shower will reach its peak on Wednesday night.

Up to 60 meteors and shooting stars per hour will fly across the night sky, creating a stellar show for spectators.

The showers began on July 17 but will be at their most intense between August 12 to 13, when they can be seen in different parts of the world.

 

When Earth passes through the comet’s leftovers each year, it creates the meteor shower. The debris collides with the atmosphere and disintegrates, causing the colourful show.

The comet made it closest fly-by to our planet in 1992 and the next one will be in 2126.

Weather on the night of August 12-13 are expected to be a bit hazy, with the second quarter moon visible.

However, expect the larger and brighter meteorites in the showers to still be visible.

The event begin at 7pm on Thursday.
