We having a twinkly sparkle from the Perseid shower tonight, if the moon isnt too bright and no clouds it could be really really good once it gets dark.

Ohh lovely!
Thanks for the heads up
🙂

Is tonight the only night to view it? Or will it be on for a few nights?

not so nice if you're in the space station…

from the BBC

In the UK, the best times to see the Perseids are likely to be on the morning of 12 August before dawn and from late evening on the 12th through to the early hours of the 13 August.

Might have to take the camera/laptop/tripod up the farm tonight then!

Where in the sky is it going to be?

Its tomorrow night too apparently. Should be a nice accompaniment to our evenings riding

Thanks for the reminder.
What time please?

A shower of big Asses?

This, I have to see…

A shower of big Asses

No, read cerfully – Ass Meteors.
There's a few of them every evening in our house, especially after anything with beans or garlic in it…..
🙄

ohh tempting for a Very early morning pre-dawn ride,

edit: hmm metcheck says 50% of cloud in my area in the morning so might, go out tonight!

I just saw a biggie – not not an Ass- and its not even proper black yet.
<Wow>

Booh, total cloud cover last night.Will take another late view tonight though.

Clear night where I was, not a sausage. (which would have been cool admittedly) but no meteors either. Bah…
