SUMMARY:Lyrid Meteor Shower I
DESCRIPTION:The Lyrids are one the weaker annual meteor showers visible from Earth\, but on peak nights\, they usually produce 20-25 shooting stars per hour. This event is also unpredictable: on rare occasions\, spectators are treated to incredible surges of up to 100 meteors per hour. For this reason\, the Lyrids are worth checking out for diehard astronomy enthusiasts.
