      I didn’t know when the next meteor shower will be, so I looked it up. According to http://www.meteorwatch.org/meteor-info/meteor-showers-2014/, the next meteor shower is the Perseids between 23rd July and 20th August 20th, with a peak on 12th August. If we get some clear evenings during that period, I might go out and see if I can spot the meteor shower myself!

      Bethany is spot on and the website she has listed is very informative. Do yourself a favour and head out into the middle of the countryside and enjoy the spectacle without the annoying interference of any light pollution.
