Why it matters
Provides essential information for amateur astronomers and skywatchers to plan observations during specific celestial events.
Meteor season finally gets going in July for the Northern Hemisphere. The first half of the month will be much like June with predominantly slow rates. After the 15th though, both sporadic and shower rates increase significantly. For observers in the Southern Hemisphere, sporadic rates will be falling but the overall activity will increase with the arrival of the Southern delta Aquariids during the last week of the month.
