ETA Aquarid Meteor show Peak: how and when can be seen

Our universe may be full of cosmic miracles, but you can only watch a fraction of astronomical phenomena with your naked eye. Meteor showers, natural fireworks that strip light over the night sky are one of them.

The most recent observable meteor shower will be the ETA aquarids, which has been active since April 19 and is expected to continue until May 28th. The shower culminated from 5 to May 6th or Monday evening to Tuesday morning.

The ETA Aquarid meteor showers are known for its fast fire balls, which occur when the earth leaves through the debris that is left by Halley's comets.

Sometimes ETA Aquariid is the easiest to see this shower from the southern tropics. However, a lower meteor rate will also be visible in the northern hemisphere near sunrise. The moon will be almost two thirds of the show on the night of the show.

The early morning hours of Tuesday are promising with a clear sky on the west coast, southeast and parts of the Middle West, said Marc Chenard, a meteorologist of the Federal Government's weather forecast.

He emphasized parts in the middle west such as Minnesota, Iowa and Missouri as well as the Carolinas to Florida.
