    Height Of Perseid Meteor Shower Next Two Nights

    The Perseid meteor shower reaches its peak after midnight tonight and tomorrow night. The shower, which is debris of the Swift-Tuttle comet entering the earth's atmosphere, happens annually and the "source" of the meteors is located in the constellation Perseus, hence its name. The expectation is that this year's show could be pretty fantastic with at least one meteor or more per minute. Hopefully, the skies will be clear and the show will be spectacular. Get out and take a look!
