How to watch the Perseid meteor shower this weekend
A meteor streaks past the Milky Way during the annual Perseid Meteor shower on Aug 12 2015. The Perseids occur every year around mid July peaking in mid August, when the earth passes through the debris field of Comet Swift-Tuttle. The meteor shower is called the Perseids as the radiant (where the shower appears to originate), lies in the constellation Perseus, which itself is just below Cassiopeia (the latter looks like a sideways W). Most of the meteors we see are tiny, about the size of a grain of sand. A typical Perseid meteoroid travels at around 214 365 kmh before hitting the earth's atmosphere upon which they burn up giving us the light show. (Fred Lum/The Globe and Mail)
