How to watch
Get away from lights, lie back and look about 45° away from the radiant. Allow 20–30 minutes for your eyes to adapt and avoid phone screens (use Night vision). Expected rates assume a dark sky; light pollution can cut them dramatically.
Shower data: International Meteor Organization working list. Peak dates are calculated each year from the Sun's position. Rate = ZHR × sin(radiant altitude).
