August meteor showers

meteor-shower

Conditions will be favorable for excellent views of the Perseids meteor showers in early to mid-August.  Let students read charts, analyze data, work with percent of moon visibility at each phase, and understand apparent magnitude in the night sky with this activity.  Can they wake up early for the show?  Motivate them.
