What’s Up for August 2018 NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory
What's up in the night sky this month? The best meteor shower of the year! The Perseids peak on a moonless summer night –from 4 p.m. on the 12th until 4 a.m. on the 13th EDT. Thanks to a new moon, the days before and after the peak will also provide nice, dark skies. The best time to look for shooting stars is from a few hours after twilight until dawn on the days surrounding the peak.
