The Lyrids will peak on the night between 21–22 Apr
April Meteor Shower
The Lyrid Meteor Shower is usually active between April 16 and 25 every year. It tends to peak around April 21 or 22. This time we get to see the best of Lyrids as we would have just passed new moon and the sky is going to be quite dark in absence of moon light. Apart from this we also have stargazing event on same night.
Oldest Recorded Meteor Shower
Named after constellation Lyra, the Lyrids are one of the oldest recorded meteor showers—according to some historical Chinese texts, the shower was seen over 2,500 years ago. The fireballs in the meteor shower are created by debris from comet Thatcher, which takes about 415 years to orbit around the Sun. The comet is expected to be visible from Earth again in 2276.
What Time Does the Meteor Shower Peak?
