The Perseid meteor shower starts now. Stargazers can watch a breathtaking show.

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

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

Three meteor showers are active right now. Tonight's nighttime display offers a selection of streaks.

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

The Lyrids put on a display in April. April nights present a gentle meteor show.

Batchawana Bay saw them on April 21-22 along with northern lights. Spectators there marveled at 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.
