The Eta Aquarids will reach their peak Monday night into Tuesday morning.<\/p>\n

Our universe might be chock-full of cosmic wonder, but you can observe only a fraction of astronomical phenomena with your naked eye. Meteor showers, natural fireworks that streak brightly across the night sky, are one of them.<\/p>\n

The latest observable meteor shower will be the Eta Aquarids, which has been active since April 19 and is forecast to continue until May 28. The shower reaches its peak May 5 to 6, or Monday night into Tuesday morning.<\/p>\n

The Eta Aquarid meteor shower is known for its fast fireballs, which occur as Earth passes through the rubble left by Halley\u2019s comet.<\/p>\n

Sometimes spelled Eta Aquariid, this shower is most easily seen from the southern tropics. But a lower rate of meteors will also be visible in the Northern Hemisphere close to sunrise. The moon will be nearly two-thirds full on the night of the show.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n
\n
\n

To get a hint at when to watch, you can use a meter<\/a> that relies on data from the Global Meteor Network showing when real-time fireball activity levels increase in the coming days.<\/p>\n
