First Meteor Shower of 2010

In late April look for the Lyrids Meteor Shower, an average light show producing about 20 meteors per hour at the peak. Expect to see bright dust trails lasting for several seconds, with peak visuals on April 21st and 22nd. Depending on location, some might see showers as early as April 16th through the 25th. Best time for viewing is after midnight.
