All year long as Earth revolves around the sun, it passes through streams of cosmic debris. The resulting meteor showers can light up night skies from dusk to dawn, and if you’re lucky you might be able to catch a glimpse.

The next shower you might be able to see is known as the Lyrids. Active between April 16 and 28, the show peaks around Sunday night into Monday morning, or April 21-22. The moon could interfere with viewing the peak this year.
