As long as it's not cloudy where you are, this year will see an above average peak of the annual Perseid meteor shower.

The Perseids will peak on a Saturday night/Sunday morning. It doesn't get much more convenient than that.

And the waning crescent moon doesn't rise until close to dawn on Sunday. So moonlight won't interfere with viewing the meteors.

The annual Perseid shower will make its big splash on the night of August 12–13. Patience has its reward. Observers won't have to tangle with the full Moon as we did last year. Instead, an 8%-illuminated crescent will rise around 3 a.m. local time and make a welcome sight in the eastern sky as dawn gets underway. Additionally, two potential meteor outbursts during and after shower maximum could sweeten the pot. More about those in a moment. Perseids flare at the rate of about one a minute from a dark sky. If you're able and the weather looks ideal consider a drive to the countryside to fully appreciate the rich harvest of meteors in the offing. Invite family and friends to share the experience. Neither telescope nor binoculars are needed, just a reclining chair, snacks, and warm clothing in case you stay out late. This interactive light-pollution map will help you find the darkest skies near your home.

The cool thing about meteor showers is that you need no optical equipment to enjoy them. Lawn chairs are always a big plus; perhaps some ambient or spacey music would be appropriate. Just sit back and watch. If you are worried about bugs, thin clothing that covers arms and legs is helpful.

Don't worry about being hit my a meteorite. Typically they are the size of a grain of sand and almost all of them burn up in the atmosphere. It's the friction caused by entering Earth's atmosphere which creates the displays.

Each particle drills into the atmosphere at more than 133,000 miles per hour (59 km/s) some 100 kilometers overhead. Heat generated as the speeding debris compresses the air in its path creates a bright streak several kilometers long made of heated atoms ablated from the meteoroid, as well as a glowing trail of air molecules ionized by the impact.

The best displays take place when your location on Earth begins to turn towards the meteor stream after midnight. Meteor showers favor viewers who stay up until 2 or 3 AM.

It is necessary to be in a dark place with low light pollution. This is a great excuse to visit friends in outer suburbs, exurbs, or rural areas. If it's dark enough to see the Milky Way, even faintly, that's a good indicator of the sky being sufficiently dark.

Of course all visual astronomy from the surface of Earth depends on the weather. So check the forecast for the place where you'd be viewing the Perseids before making final plans.

One overlooked aspect of astronomy is that it's a very inexpensive date. So enjoy the company under the stars! ☄️

Me a few years ago: oh Russian literature musical!

Me every day since then: DID I SQUANDER MY DIVINITY? WAS HAPPINESS WITHIN ME THIS WHOLE TIME?

I recently went to the Museum für Naturkunde which roughly translates to Museum of Natural History in Berlin.

This was my first ever experience of seeing actual dinosaurs(or whatever remains of them)

I also got to see their least favourite reindeers, which are comets basically.

I realized I will never be tired of visiting museums (even though the moralities are always in question when it comes to museums and zoos)

Nonetheless it was a cherished experience.
