Can Shenzhen see the 8. 13 meteor shower?
Meteor shower has no obvious regional characteristics. Perseid meteor shower can be seen in the northern hemisphere and Shenzhen. (But cloudy days don't seem to work. How many stars can you see? If you can't see a few stars, you can't see a meteor shower. The observation direction is the northeast of the sky.
The Perseid meteor shower will reach its maximum from August 3rd 1: 30 to 4: 00. Experts suggest that you choose a place with open terrain and dark sky, and look at the northeast sky between 0 am and 4 am on 13.
To see as many meteors as possible, it is best to lie flat on the ground, observe the night sky for a long time and monitor the sky as much as possible. The visual field of human eyes can reach more than 100, which is rarely surpassed by other astronomical observation tools. So you don't need a telescope or anything.
Perseus starts to rise from the northeast around 8: 00 p.m., and rises above the horizon at around 1 1 p.m., and can be seen all night.
