Meteor shower will pass close to Earth


 

The next Wednesday (22) is marked by an intense peak of the Lyrid meteor shower, which can be seen from Earth. According to experts, in cases of luck, can be seen between 10 to 20 meteors per hour in the terrestrial sky.

As it is difficult to track the passage of the meteor shower with the naked eye, experts recommend at least the use of binoculars.

For anyone with the overcast sky or do not have the necessary equipment, the Community Observatory Slooh will make live broadcast of the event. To improve the transmission is done with brand new equipment and provide better observation of the phenomenon
