Perseid meteor shower

Look up in the sky. Way out beyond the birds and the planes are massive celestial bodies that are way too distant to see with the naked eye. But with the help of binoculars, telescopes and local astronomers, you can observe one of the most jaw-dropping events deep in our solar system—the Perseid meteor shower. Bring a blanket, sit back, learn the wonders of the universe and get some science dropped on you.
