Port Shower
Where can I see the Perseid Meteor shower?
I live in St Catharines Ontario (More Spef Port Dalhousie) and I am wondering where I can see it? Which direction do I look? Is my backyard acceptable or will I need to be out the country? What is the best time to see it?
This one is called the Perseid Meteor Shower. That means that most of the meteors will seem to appear from the region of space that has the constellation Perseus towards the North Eastern sky. It can be seen from nearly everywhere on the northern hemisphere of the planet Earth. Naked eye viewing is best with no extra equipment needed. Meteors move so fast that it is difficult to follow their paths with telescopes, binoculars, or cameras.

This is great freeware that you can download. Tell it where you are and it will tell you what you see. Ask it where something is and it will show you. This FREE program will show you exactly where to look in the sky to find the constellation, Perseus, in the North Eastern sky. This program will answer questions like this for you for many years to come.
There are hundreds of meteors that streak through the atmosphere of the earth each and every day and night. There are times when the earth passes through what was the path of a comet and our atmosphere will pick up a lot of tiny specks of dust left behind from that comet. When that happens, it is called a meteor shower.
There are many meteor showers every year. ★ Meteor showers can occur several days prior, and several days after, their projected peak time. ★ Think about the rotation of the earth. As the Earth spins, it moves into the path of the dust in space so you want to look mostly towards the east and near the constellation that the shower is named for.
The darker the sky in your viewing location, then the more you can see of even the fainter meteors. If you are in a light polluted area, you will only be able to see the biggest and most bright meteors. They are best to watch if you have a friend with you.
Great Article on Meteor Showers:

This is the 2010 calendar of meteor showers from the International Meteor Organization.
They put the 2010 calendar on a pdf file this year so you can save it to your computer.
Here is their link for that.

Their home page can tell you how to get the very most out of your meteor shower viewing experience.
