The annual Perseid meteor shower approaches its peak overnight from Monday August 12 to Tuesday August 13, with some also spotting the northern lights.

Active from mid-July and considered one of the best meteor showers of the year, the Perseids are best seen in the northern hemisphere.

If you spotted the Perseid meteor shower this year, we’d love to hear from you. Where and when did you see them? How did they make you feel?
