Stargazers around the world were treated to a dazzling celestial display as the annual Eta Aquarids meteor shower peaked this weekend. The shower, known for its fast and bright meteors, was visible in the pre-dawn hours, with the best views in the Southern Hemisphere and tropical regions.
What Are the Eta Aquarids?
The Eta Aquarids meteor shower occurs every year in late April and early May when Earth passes through the debris trail left by Halley’s Comet. These tiny dust and ice particles burn up in Earth’s atmosphere, creating streaks of light that can reach speeds of up to 148,000 miles per hour (66 km/s).
Under ideal conditions, observers could see up to 30-40 meteors per hour, though light pollution and the nearly full moon slightly reduced visibility this year. The shower’s radiant point—the area where meteors appear to originate—was near the constellation Aquarius, giving the event its name.
Best Viewing Experiences
Astronomy enthusiasts in Australia, South America, and parts of Africa reported the most spectacular sightings due to the shower’s higher visibility in the Southern Hemisphere. In the Northern Hemisphere, viewers still caught glimpses of the shower, particularly in the hours before sunrise.
'I woke up at 3 a.m. and drove to a dark spot outside the city,' said Maria Gonzalez, an amateur astronomer in Chile. 'It was absolutely worth it—I counted at least 20 meteors in just half an hour!'
When to Catch the Next Meteor Shower
While the Eta Aquarids have passed their peak, stragglers may still be visible for a few more nights. The next major meteor shower, the Perseids, will light up the sky in August, offering another chance for skywatchers to enjoy nature’s fireworks.
For those who missed this year’s Eta Aquarids, Halley’s Comet will provide another meteor display in October with the Orionids—another shower linked to its ancient debris.
