The number of #Perseid meteors is on the increase. I observed 10 last night under clear skies over a couple of hours. There's still a few days left to catch them in a dark sky, before the Moon interferes too much. #Astronomy #Perseids #Astrophotography #PerseidsMeteorShower

Practical Advice for Photographing the Perseids Meteor Shower The Perseid meteor shower is often the most spectacular meteor shower in the Northern Hemisphere due to frequency as well as its appearance in summer. Here's how to photograph it! Find Dark Clear Skies Find the darkest skies you can, away from light pollution, preferably with large open spaces to view the night sky. Obviously, you also want to find a place with as few clouds as possible. Typically, they peak in August. However, you can see plenty of meteors on other nights surrounding the peak. The most important thing is that you have dark, clear skies, preferably when the moon is not out.

I caught this bright #Perseid meteor and subsequent smoke trail last night, at 01:31 UT. The bright 'star' below left of the meteor is actually the planet Saturn. A pretty nice Perseid to see with still a few days until the peak. #Perseids #Astronomy #Astrophotography #PerseidsMeteorShower

13th to 14th and 14th to 15th: Post-peak, the rate of #Perseid meteors should still be reasonably high on these evenings, despite the bright Moon nearby. #PerseidsMeteorShower #Perseids #Astronomy

A Perseid meteor captured near the Andromeda Galaxy at 00.26 UT on 9 August 2023.

When observing the #Perseids, note that the best rates will occur after midnight and into the early hours. This is because the radiant is getting higher in the sky and the Earth has turned into the path of the meteor stream. #Astronomy #PerseidsMeteorShower

Tonight and the next two weeks offer a good opportunity to see early #Perseid meteors. During this time the Moon is out of the way, resulting in darker skies for meteor spotting. Observe after midnight for the best chance to see some #Perseids. #Astronomy #PerseidsMeteorShower

The source of the #Perseids meteor shower is comet 109P/Swift-Tuttle and the shower has been observed for nearly 2,000 years. Meteors from this stream hit our atmosphere at 59km/s, which is quite swift compared to other showers. #Astronomy #PerseidsMeteorShower

Stunning view of the Perseid meteor shower over Hahn's Peak, Colorado, with an unexpected aurora borealis display caused by a coronal mass ejection from the Sun. The vibrant green and purple hues of the aurora contrast beautifully with the bright streak of a meteor. A breathtaking celestial event captured in a single frame.

I caught quite a few #Perseids going through the Summer Triangle last night (11-12 August), observing from the North York Moors. Here's a good one from 00:57 UT. Notice that red cast upper right? That's the #aurora! #PerseidsMeteorShower #Perseid #Astrophotography #Astronomy
