Happy Space Science Saturday!
The Lyrids meteor shower peaks on the night of April 22–23, bringing up to 18 meteors per hour! One of the oldest recorded meteor showers, the Lyrids come from debris left behind by Comet Thatcher. While the radiant is in the constellation Lyra, meteors can appear anywhere in the sky. So find a dark spot, give your eyes time to adjust, and look up.
For the best views in Toronto, head out after midnight when the sky is darker and the radiant is higher.
