Lyrid Meteor Shower can be viewed mainly from the northern hemisphere. Usually it lasts from April 15 to April 29.
Dating back a staggering 2700 years, the Lyrids have mesmerized sky gazers since ancient times. This cosmic spectacle isn't confined to a single point in the sky. These shooting stars will dazzle you from all directions. And the reason behind this celestial dance? Earth's path crosses with the remnants of Comet Thatcher, a cosmic traveller on a 415.5-year journey around the Sun. The meteors will rain down, with the peak around April 22nd or 23rd, leaving luminous dust trails in their wake.
