david_sobe Posted August 8, 2015 #1 Share Posted August 8, 2015 You are in for one amazing meteor shower show. Unusual events have created the perfect storm for star gazing. Next week the annual meteor shower will also be right before the new moon meaning the sky will be perfect for star gazing and watching shooting stars. A cruise in the middle of the ocean is the perfect place to star gaze. It almost makes me want to book a cruise right now :eek:. The best entertainment will not be in the theater next week. It will be sitting on your balcony watching this amazing sky show. Someone please report back with anything they see. http://www.cnn.com/2015/08/08/world/perseid-meteor-shower-2015/index.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jane Don Posted August 8, 2015 #11 Share Posted August 8, 2015 A cautionary tale: Five years ago I was camping on the only campsite on a little island (rock) in the middle of a big lake in northern Ontario. We had to canoe 3km to our little island with all of our gear. The meteor shower was one of the most amazing things I have ever seen. It was like someone took a highlighter to the sky. It was totally surreal. We put the air mattress out on the rocks to watch. Most people do not get souvenirs from a meteor shower but I brought one home. My son is now 4 :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
