>> Just two weeks before the Perseids Metoer Shower will ocure, the S.

popular

able

>The final week of July is always a good compromise when the more
>famous August Perseids are wiped out by the moon. The warm, summer
>nights make it pleasant to go out and observe. Most meteors in late
>July will radiate from around Aquarius. The S. Delta Aquarids are the
>strongest shower but they are not alone! Activity combines with many
>weak southern radiants, early Perseids and sporadics. All together,
>this gives very pleasant meteor activity. Most of the radiants in
>Aquarius are long lasting with rather broad maximums. So if one night
>turns out cloudy, the next one will produce more good rates. Most
>Aquarid meteors are faint but I sometimes see an occasionnal slow
>fireball from one of the showers called Alpha Capricornids.

>Despite my site at high latitude (45 degrees) with the southern
>radiants never really high, I can still catch a good number of meteors
>visible all night! After 1:00 local, rates tend to go up quite a
>bit until dawn. It is best to face south or south-east, toward
>the radiants and to look a little more than halfway up to see the
>most activity.
