As an important astronomical phenomenon every summer, the maximum zenith discharge of Perseid meteor shower is 60-100 per hour.

The Perseid meteor shower of 20 18 is extremely extreme in daytime in China, but the night of 12 to the early morning of 13 is still a good observation time without moonlight interference. If the weather is clear and the lighting conditions permit, it can be seen with the naked eye.

Preparation before observation:

First of all, you should be familiar with the starry sky, know the constellations around the meteor shower radiation point and the names of the main stars, and also prepare star maps, record sheets, pens, small flashlights (wrapped in red cloth or red paper), proofreading clocks and watches and other necessary supplies, as well as cold-proof and dew-proof items such as seats and clothes.

When observing, count the meteors. If you observe in pairs, one counts the number of meteors and the other records the time and the number of meteors. Sometimes there are too many meteors to remember, so you can prepare a small notebook. When you see a fashion, draw a line on the notebook with a pencil and count the number of strokes divided by the time interval to get the ratio of seeing meteors.

Record the start and end times when counting. Because of long-term observation, it is necessary to maintain a comfortable posture. Of course, it is very cold in the middle of the night in winter, so be sure to keep warm.

Observing meteor showers can also be used to photograph the beauty of meteor showers. You need a B-door camera and high-sensitivity film to take pictures.
