meteor shower this month!

[Nano]

I read online the other day that starting tonight all the way to the 23rd of august there will be a large meteor shower, one of the largest in our life times. It will be brightest and most active between the 12-13th so any astro hobbyists or anyone whos never wished on a shooting star now is your chance!

I've been thinking of driving out to the badlands this weekend to snap a few long exposture shots.

No need to drive anywhere. Just get one of these. :lol:

You need to go camping more where there's NO light pollution from city lights. I've NEVER gone camping in the past in the wilderness on clear nights where I didn't see shooting stars.

Man I camped my whole life just never spent much time looking up :P

actualy this is one we see every year at aproximatly the same time, called the Perseid meteor shower, but yes it is a bright and spectualr one. I remember watching in the summers when I was a kid/young adult, about 2 hours out of edmonton camping at the lake.

get out of the city and away from the lights as you might see a few there, in the dark country you will see hundreds.
