The Perseid meteor shower starts now. Stargazers can admire a spectacular show.

It peaks on August 12, 2026. The peak will light up night skies across the country.

Canada will have prime seats for the show. Local viewers are well placed to see the meteors.

Three meteor showers are active right now. Tonight's astronomical display features a mix of streaks.

The Perseids and Lyrids shine the brightest. These clearest streams capture eyes worldwide.

The Lyrids put on a display in April. April nights provide a subtle meteor show.

Batchawana Bay saw them on April 21-22 along with northern lights. Spectators there cherished the paired display.

Skies in 2026 should be perfect for watching. Clear horizons promise ideal viewing opportunity.

No telescope needed. Bare eyes are enough for this spectacle.
