Perseids, also known as the annual Perseid meteor shower, will be streaking across the sky tonight and tomorrow for those that gaze upwards to the sky to view. The Perseid shower occurs every summer when the Earth’s orbit crosses the path of debris thrown off by Comet Swift-Tuttle.
When is the best time to watch? In North America, the best time period to view will be just before dawn on Wednesday 8/12/2009. Watchers are expected to see up to one-hundred meteors per hour at the peak of Perseids activity.

Great videos. I especially like your use of music with the bottom video.
I just checked my sky (southwest British Columbia @ 2:30 am PDT) and I can also see perhaps 2 meteor trails per minute on average – this was supposed to be the 2nd peak per a NASA site.
Great videos! I watched last night and only caught two…turns out I was looking in the wrong direction.
Great video collection! I agree, w/use of music in the last clip. Thanks for sharing…I missed it!
This was wonderful, Me and my boys were chasing around in a city in West Virginia trying to get a glimse. Tt was cloudy and foggy. Had I know we might have been able to see some earlier it was actually clear at 8 and 9 PM. Thanks for giving me the opportunity to see what they looked like.
