The Perseid meteor shower will peak tonight, with a treat in store for star-gazers.
The shower lights up the skies every summer, and is known for its bright, fast-moving meteors - often called "shooting stars".
The Perseids are visible to the naked eye - but local weather will play a major role, so check your forecast before heading out.
Visibility could also be affected by bright moonlight from the recent Sturgeon Moon, making it harder to see the fainter streaks.
