Is there a meteor shower tonight?

No. Meteor shower is an astronomical phenomenon. To observe it, the following conditions need to be met:

1. Clear, cloudless and rainless weather: The most important condition for observing meteor showers is clear sky. If there are clouds in the sky, meteors will be hidden from view by clouds, so sunny days are most suitable.

2. Low light pollution: Light pollution in cities will interfere with the observation of meteor showers.

3. Appropriate observation time: The annual meteor shower peak usually lasts only a few hours, so it is necessary to observe at the right time.

4. Appropriate observation location: In order to observe meteor showers, it is best to choose a place far away from obstacles such as cities and tall buildings to gain a broader view.

5. Appropriate observation equipment: No special equipment is needed to observe the meteor shower, but it is recommended to use some basic astronomical telescopes or telescope lenses to obtain better observation results.
