For any Astronomers or shooting stars fans.

The Perseid meteor shower back & depending on weather and location they can be observed, 12 of August being the peak viewing night.

The Perseid meteor shower is named after the constellation Perseus, which is located in roughly the same point of the night sky where the Perseid meteor shower appears to originate from.

The source of the Perseid meteor shower is debris from the comet Swift-Tuttle. Every year, the earth passes through the debris cloud left by the comet when the earth's atmosphere is bombarded shooting stars.

Best google your location to get a star chart and viewing info.
