What are the astronomical wonders from 20 12 to 20 13?

2012,2065438+02 Perseid meteor shower can be observed over Britain from mid-July to mid-August. In August, the activity value of meteor shower group reaches its peak, with the limit of more than 50 meteors per hour. The earth passes through the dense gravel belt left by the disintegration of comet Swift-Tuttle.

Because these meteors fly from Perseus in the starry sky, they are called "Perseid meteor shower".

From February 20 12 to April 20 13, the northern lights are regarded as a sign that the solar active period is approaching. Northern Scandinavia near the North Pole, northern Canada and northern Russia are the best places to watch the Northern Lights.
