The Perseid meteor shower starts now. Stargazers can admire a spectacular show.

It peaks on August 12, 2026. The peak will brighten night skies across the country.

Canada will have prime seats for the show. Local viewers are well placed to observe the meteors.

Three meteor showers are active right now. Tonight's nighttime display features a variety of streaks.

The Perseids and Lyrids shine the brightest. These brightest streams draw eyes worldwide.

The Lyrids put on a display in April. April nights provide a soft meteor show.

Batchawana Bay saw them on April 21-22 along with northern lights. Spectators there cherished the combined display.

Skies in 2026 should be perfect for watching. Clear horizons guarantee ideal viewing moments.

No telescope needed. Bare eyes do the job for this event.
