Do not miss the Perseids meteor shower Thursday August 11 – Terra.com

The AM on Thursday August 11, the sky will light up completely with the meteor shower Perseids, according to reports from the National Administration Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA).

This meteor shower can be seen every year in the month of August. To better appreciate this spectacle of nature, forecasters have advised away from the city lights because although the Perseids can be seen from the big cities, the most impressive bursts will be only in rural areas.

However, you can also enjoy this incredible evening at the Museum of Natural History accompanied by lectures, workshops and an astronomical rally, access will be free only have to register via email.

And that’s not all. On the night of 12 to 13 August meteors such light up the heights, as the tail of Comet Swift-Tuttle, although not located near Earth, coincides with the orbit of our planet, so small fragments this dust collide with Earth’s atmosphere at 212,000 kilometers per hour giving us a breathtaking view that you can not miss.
