    Perseid meteors peak tonight.

    Two thing conspire to make the Perseid peak tonight potentially great:
    -the Earth is entering a particularly "thick" part of the debris stream from comet Swift-Tuttle (which makes the Perseids),
    -the entire evening is moonless.

    If you have clear skies, go out, kick back, and enjoy!
