Lyrid Meteor Shower 2016
The Lyrids have been active for three days now and will last up to April 25. The meteor showers are expected to peak in the mornings of April 22 and April 23. A peak meteor shower is defined as the moment of maximum activity and the time when most meteors are seen. In ideal conditions, stargazers can expect to see 10-20 Lyrids per hour.
However, there is a catch. A full moon night, however, during these days can hamper the ability to spot meteors. Despite the moon hurdle, stargazers all over the world are getting ready to witness the event.
