PERSEID METEORS VS THE FULL MOON: Earth is approaching a dense stream of debris from Comet Swift-Tuttle, source of the annual Perseid meteor shower. Meteor rates should rise quickly during the next 24 hours with a peak expected on Aug. 12-13. Full moonlight will interfere with the display, overwhelming many faint meteors. Fortunately, there will be plenty of Perseidfireballs. Enjoy the show: observing tips.
