Well, yes .. There will be Perseid meteor shower around 0: 00 to 5: 00 .. Lots and lots of meteors ~ ~ ~

Perseid meteor shower is the most active and frequently observed meteor shower, and it is also the best meteor shower for non-professional meteor observers. Perseid meteor runs faster, breaking through the night sky at a speed of 49 kilometers per second. The data show that the Perseid meteor shower is relatively stable in recent years, and the zenith flow is 60- 100 per hour.

Astronomical experts say that the Perseid meteor shower can be seen with the naked eye. However, the time and location of any meteor can't be predicted in advance, so to watch as many meteors as possible, it's best to avoid the city lights, lie flat on the ground and watch the night sky for a long time. Open spaces such as Yuelu Mountain and Moon Island are the first choice. If you are afraid of catching cold at night, take a coat. Photography lovers can also try to take pictures of this astronomical phenomenon, connect the camera to the equatorial plane, and after a long exposure, it is possible to take pictures of the Perseid meteor shower and the Milky Way.

In addition, since August of 13 is June 23rd of the lunar calendar, that is, the last quarter of the moon, the meteor shower will be seriously disturbed by moonlight in the second half of the night.
