The Perseids, one of the year's most prolific meteor showers, peaked this week, raining dozens of "shooting stars" per hour through Earth's skies.
Some lucky stargazers caught a double feature of meteors and dazzling auroras, which were triggered by a spree of powerful solar eruptions earlier in the week. Others, like U.K.-based astrophotographer Josh Dury, hunted for meteors at thematically appropriate locales — namely, the prehistoric astronomical monument Stonehenge in Wiltshire, England.
