The Perseid meteor shower is set to dazzle stargazers across Germany, reaching its peak on the nights of August 12th and 13th.

This annual celestial event promises a spectacular display, with the potential to see 20 to 30 meteors per hour under optimal conditions.

Experts recommend viewing during the second half of the night, after the moon sets around 11 PM, to maximize visibility.

The best spots for observing are dark, rural areas away from city lights, such as the Rhön Star Park and various observatories in Hessen.

The German Weather Service forecasts mostly clear skies, providing a perfect backdrop for this cosmic show.

However, some regions in the south and southwest might experience brief showers or thunderstorms, but these are expected to clear by nightfall.

This meteor shower offers a unique opportunity to escape the daily grind and enjoy the beauty of the night sky.
