Did you miss the peak of the Perseids meteor shower? You can still catch it. Where and when to get the best view of celestial event around Ohio.

Thankfully, there were still plenty of bright meteors to be seen, which outshone the moon to dazzle stargazers and provide a mesmerizing target for the astronomical community, who captured the shooting stars against a backdrop of aurora and framed spectacular landscapes.

The Perseid shower, which has been active since July 17, is “considered the best meteor shower of the year,” according to NASA. At its peak, viewers could see up to 100 streaks every hour, which is high compared to the average peak meteor shower rate of at least 15 meteors every hour.
