The Perseid meteor shower will peak the morning of August 13 (Credit: NASA/JPL/ Public Domain)

There are over 30 meteor showers annually. But few can compare to the spectacular Perseids. The "shooting stars" have been blazing through the sky at a rate of about a dozen an hour since mid-July and will continue until the end of August. But the best time to view them is when Earth passes through the area with the densest comet dust. That's when the meteors' pace increases to between 50 and 100 an hour. This year that will be during the pre-dawn hours of August 13.

            I love this! It has become kind of a tradition every year to go out and see them! Sadly, we probably will not get to see them this year because of the cloud cover lately. 🌟☄️🌠

                Wow the comet's look so cool! I want to see the shooting stars on August 13th at 2am I really want to see the shooting stars at least once in my life. I wonder how hot the debris becomes. I wonder how many shooting stars will come to Vancouver, Canada because I want to watch to watch with my cousins and I will call my dad and video call him so he will see the shooting stars in the video and I wish he would enjoy the video.🌠💫☄️🌠💫☄️🌠☄️

                    Um... I'm going to ask my mom/dad and ask if we can get up really early and watch it. I've only ever seen 1 shooting star, so this will be cool! I hope where I live it's a good viewing! It'll be soo cool!
