Aquarid meteor shower to peak on moonless night
Bits of Halley's Comet will streak into the Earth's atmosphere before
dawn on Monday during the peak of the eta Aquarid meteor shower.
Moonlight will not interfere with the show, making this likely the
best meteor display for northern hemisphere observers until the
Perseids in August, and the best all year for southern hemisphere
viewers.
