The sky is expected to brighten up this week – but it has nothing to do with sunshine: the annual Perseid meteor shower is approaching its peak.
Considered one of the best meteor showers of the year, the Perseids are active from mid-July and are predicted to peak overnight from Monday 12 August to Tuesday 13 August.
