Stargazers are in for a treat, as one of the largest meteor showers of the year, the Perseids, are expected to peak in activity over the next couple of nights.
The Perseids will be visible in all parts of the sky, and we might be in luck, as Met Eireann’s prediction is for clear spells tonight.
And not only the Perseids will be visible; the International Space Station (ISS) is also expected to pass over Ireland. It will move much slower than the shooting stars, and will be visible over Irish skies until August 16.
