June Bootid Meteor Shower 2025 Date

In 2025, the June Bootid Meteor Shower will be active from June 22 to July 2.

What To Expect?

During this time, the Earth's rotation turns New Delhi to face optimally towards the direction of the incoming shooting stars, maximising the number that rain vertically downwards, producing short trails close to the radiant point. On the other hand, at other times, only a few meteors will burn up over New Delhi. They tend to enter the atmosphere more at an oblique angle by producing long-lived, widespread meteors that can traverse the sky before completely burning up.

The shower is said to peak activity around 05:00 PM IST on June 27, and the finest displays may occur after sunset on that day.

Also, one of the best places to see the most meteors is not directly looking at the radiant. Instead, try to see any dark patch of the sky, like 30–40° away from it. Do you know that most meteors can be easily seen at this distance from the radiant?
