Astronomy fans hoping to enjoy the meteors can check <a href=\"https:\/\/www.weather.gov\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">local forecasts<\/a> for detailed information on how clear the night sky will be in various locations.<\/p>\n<p>Under optimal conditions, about 50 Eta Aquariid meteors can be seen per hour during the shower&#8217;s peak. But light from the waxing moon will wash out the fainter meteors this year, according to Bill Cooke, who leads NASA&#8217;s Meteoroid Environments Office. Viewers can expect 10-15 meteors per hour just before dawn on Tuesday morning.<\/p>\n<h2>When and where to see the Eta Aquariids\u00a0<\/h2>\n<p>While the shower will peak from May 5 to May 6, the shower will be active until May 21.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>To catch the meteors at their peak, NASA advises going outside around 2 a.m. local time on Tuesday. The moon will set by around 3 a.m., leaving skies dark until dawn.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The shower will be viewable in both the Northern and Southern hemispheres but the conditions will be better in the Southern Hemisphere.\u00a0<\/p>\n<figure class=\"embed embed--type-image is-image embed--float-none embed--size-medium\">\n<p>      <span class=\"img embed__content\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets3.cbsnewsstatic.com\/hub\/i\/r\/2025\/05\/04\/1a79ec1b-56e2-4119-b55e-7b859ae43d2d\/thumbnail\/620x413\/67f6194e22476b1df0c55f7d7c6e6f7f\/gettyimages-2150986120-1.jpg?v=7c5acc180b39394767372ab4e02619ce#\" alt=\"Eta Aquarids Meteor Shower Appears In The Night Sky. \" height=\"413\" width=\"620\" class=\" lazyload\" srcset=\"https:\/\/assets3.cbsnewsstatic.com\/hub\/i\/r\/2025\/05\/04\/1a79ec1b-56e2-4119-b55e-7b859ae43d2d\/thumbnail\/620x413\/67f6194e22476b1df0c55f7d7c6e6f7f\/gettyimages-2150986120-1.jpg?v=7c5acc180b39394767372ab4e02619ce 1x, https:\/\/assets3.cbsnewsstatic.com\/hub\/i\/r\/2025\/05\/04\/1a79ec1b-56e2-4119-b55e-7b859ae43d2d\/thumbnail\/1240x826\/b17795c87c39146f1cd65540e4ea7d29\/gettyimages-2150986120-1.jpg?v=7c5acc180b39394767372ab4e02619ce 2x\" loading=\"lazy\"\/><\/span><figcaption class=\"embed__caption-container\">\n<p>                  <span class=\"embed__caption\">The Eta Aquarids meteor shower, best observed in the predawn hours away from city lights, is a mesmerizing celestial event cherished by skywatchers worldwide.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>                  <span class=\"embed__credit\"><\/p>\n<p>                Thilina Kaluthotage\/NurPhoto via Getty Images<\/p>\n<p>                          <\/span><br \/>\n              <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Viewers should find an area away from lights, then lie on their backs with their feet facing east.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>NASA advises viewers should look away from the moon and give their eyes about 30 minutes to adjust to the dark. Avoid looking at bright lights, such as a cellphone.<\/p>\n<p>Bring a sleeping bag, blanket or lawn chair to keep comfortable while waiting for the meteors.\u00a0<\/p>\n<h2>What are meteor showers?<\/h2>\n<p>Meteors, space rocks that enter Earth&#8217;s atmosphere, streak through the sky every day.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>But meteor showers \u2014 when many meteors hit Earth&#8217;s atmosphere over a short period of time \u2014 happen less frequently. When meteors pass through the atmosphere, they leave streaks of light behind them, giving them the appearance of a shooting star.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Most meteors burn up as they fall toward Earth, but some survive the trip and are then considered meteorites.\u00a0<\/p>\n<h2>What makes the Eta Aquariids unique\u00a0<\/h2>\n<p>The Eta Aquariids are known for their speed. The Eta Aquariids travel about 40 miles per second.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Eta Aquarid meteors in the Northern Hemisphere are often earthgrazers \u2014 long meteors that appear to skim the surface of the Earth at the horizon, according to NASA.<\/p>\n<p>Meteors in the Eta Aquariids come from space debris that originated from Halley&#8217;s comet. Halley sheds a layer of ice and dust into space each time it returns to the inner solar system. The shed space dust forms two meteor showers a year: the Eta Aquarids in May and the Orionids in October.<\/p>\n<p>    <!-- data-recirc-source=\"chartbeat\" --><\/p>\n<aside class=\"component list recirculation component--type-recirculation component--type-recirculation-collection\">\n<p>                  <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/feature\/space-astronomy\/?intcid=CNI-00-10aaa3a\" class=\"component__view-more component__view-more--sm\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\"><br \/>\n            More<br \/>\n            <svg viewbox=\"0 0 32 32\" class=\"icon__caret-right\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n              <use xlink:href=\"#icon-caret-down\"\/>\n            <\/svg><br \/>\n          <\/a><br \/>\n                    <\/aside>\n<p>    <!-- tags --><\/p>\n<div class=\"content-author\">\n      <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/team\/aliza-chasan\/\" class=\"content-author__name\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">Aliza  Chasan<\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"content-author__bio\">\n<div class=\"content-author__full-information\">\n<p class=\"content-author__text\">Aliza Chasan is a Digital Content Producer for &#8220;60 Minutes&#8221; and CBSNews.com.
