Lyrid Meteor Shower 2020: Shooting Stars Light Up The Night Sky During Annual Shower Of April

It is an interesting and beautiful sight up in the sky these days. It’s fascinating to look up at the night skies as Lyrid Meteor showers are at their peak and will remain in your sky for the week. The star show takes place every April. This year it began on April 16 and will last till April 26. The beautiful Lyrid Meteor Shower has been observed since 687 BC and it graces us every year. This year, it was at its peak a day before the new moon. And this meant that it was a dark night sky to give you a view of the showers. The star shower is especially clear for observers in the Northern Hemisphere, who can see up to 20 meteors per hour during its peak. To observe Lyrid Meteor Shower requires luck and strategy. You should make sure you are not in a place with many lights. A dark place is the most suitable and you should lie down and up at the sky.
