SUMMARY:Perseid Meteor Shower and Star Party
DESCRIPTION:This year the Perseid Meteor Shower peaks in the early morning hours of Wednesday August 13\, 2025. But fear not meteor shower lovers\, all meteor showers occur over a window of time with most starting 1-2 weeks before their peak date and will continue for 1-2 weeks past their peak date. Only the peak date is ever advertised. With this knowledge you can expect random meteor sightings (shooting stars) at least 1 week prior and to continue for another week past the peak date. The Perseid’s are one of the busiest of all showers so if you are going to invest your time looking for shooting stars\, this is the one to look at. \nOn this evening of August 16 volunteers from the Big Bear Valley Astronomical Society will be setting up telescopes of varies sizes and styles for a free public viewing of the many celestial objects visible on this evening. For those who are willing to stay late we will have the opportunity see see our ringed neighbor Saturn\, hanging low in the eastern sky on this evening. \nBring your family and friends\, jackets\, blankets and a chairs if you have one and enjoy this astronomical and educational wonder with us.
