The annual Eta Aquariid meteor shower (also called the Eta Aquariids or Eta Aquarids) will peak tonight and tomorrow (May 5-6), giving skywatchers a chance to see "shooting stars" in the night sky.
With the potential for up to 60 meteors per hour, it's an exciting prospect for anyone with dark and clear skies, though your location will make a big difference in what you'll see. However, this meteor shower has a broad peak, so it's possible to see shooting stars in the nights just before and after the peak.
