Whomp whomp. The full moon will outshine most of the meteors this year The Delta Aquariid shower burns from around July 18 to August 21. Shooting stars are rising in mid-evening, up high around 2 a.m. and low in the sky by dawn. Favoring the Southern Hemisphere and tropical Northern Hemisphere regions like the southern U.S., this shower produces 15 to 20 meteors per hour. Originating from debris left by comets Marsden and Kracht, these meteors radiate near the star Skat in the Aquarius constellation. Unlike many showers, the Delta Aquarids don't have a sharp peak, instead offering a steady display through late July and early August. During early August, they often coincide with the Perseids, providing an enhanced experience, particularly from southerly latitudes.
