Perseids Star Showers Lift Night Skywatchers
Stargazers are urged to view the Perseids meteor shower tonight with a clear sky. The shower stems from Swift Tuttle, a comet that sheds debris toward Earth about every 130 years. Look north late evening or early Monday morning from a high, open spot with Polaris as a guide. Many meteors appear as faint tracers across the dark sky. The Perseids originate in the Perseus constellation, named for the mythic hero who married Andromeda.
