Perseids, 11 and 12th of August.
In general best time to observe them is in the early morning.
The late-night side ( or early-morning side) of our planet is then turned toward the outside of the solar system. We then fly into any Perseids, rather than having them overtake us.

Looks great!!!

Only thing I did was move it to the "Astronomical Events" forum.
