July is going to be an interesting month for skywatchers, as we're expecting dueling meteor showers later this month.
Summer nights are some of the shortest of the year, and while that isn’t always great for stargazing, July isn’t lacking when it comes to skywatching events to look forward to. The full “Thunder Moon” is expected to rise on July 21, but even better than that, we’re expecting dueling meteor showers later this month. The meteor showers we’re expecting to see in our skies this year are the Southern Delta Aquarids and the Alpha Capircornids.
This experience is expected to happen when both showers peak—when they’re most active. The Southern Delta Aquarids will peak on the night of July 29-30, and the Alpha Capricornids will peak on the night of July 30-31. Because they fall at the same time, though, their meteors tend to combine, creating a brighter experience around that time of the month. Of course, this flurry of meteors in late July is just a taste of what the Perseids will bring in August.
