PGI's Dollars for Dogs

☄️ Tonight, September 9–10, the Epsilon Perseid meteor shower reaches its annual peak. It is a relatively minor meteor shower, but under ideal dark-sky conditions, observers can see up to about 8 meteors per hour.

🌌 The shower is active from roughly September 5 to September 21, with the highest activity occurring around September 9. Its radiant lies in the constellation Perseus, giving the shower its name.

🌑 This year’s timing is especially favorable because the peak occurs close to the New Moon, so there will be very little moonlight washing out the fainter meteors.

🔭 For the best chance of seeing meteors, move away from bright city lights and give your eyes time to adjust to the darkness. You don’t need a telescope or binoculars—just a clear, dark sky and a wide view of the heavens.
