The Eta Aquarid meteor shower is peaking. Experts say expect to see 10 to 15 meteors per hour in ideal viewing conditions early Tuesday. However, a two-thirds full moon will likely reduce visibility at peak. Viewing lasts until May 28. The source of the Eta Aquarids is debris from Halley’s comet. The next major meteor shower, the Southern Delta Aquarids, peaks in late July. You don’t need special equipment to see the various meteor showers that flash across annually, just a spot away from city lights.
