The Perseid meteor shower will be on August 11th and 12th in 2016.

It will be a late night light show. It is predicted that there will be many more falling stars than usual this year. The lights are due to super heated space rock and dust that passes near to stars.

Earth passes through this debris once a year, but it is no threat to us. This year, Jupiter will be close enough to push the debris nearer to Earth.

It is expected that we can have up to 200 visible meteors per hour during this shower.

When is the next shooting star in the month of June?

Meteors, or "shooting stars", can be seen anynight. However, there are a half-dozen or so known "meteor showers", in which the Earth passes through the path of an old comet. In a strong meteor shower, you might see several meteors EACH MINUTE as opposed to a few each evening.The next is the Lyrid meteor shower, which should peak in the pre-dawn hours of next Wednesday, April 22. In addition to the meteors, something else fascinating will happen; the planet Venus will disappear behind the Moon!http://science.nasa.gov/headlines/y2009/17apr_lyrids.htm?list93009
