What week! After the falling stars of 5 and 6 Junetra on 10 and 15 of this month well Three shamans of falling stars they will be pending. We will begin with the epsilon-cignidi peak between 10 and 12, we will continue with the Tau Herculidi between 12 and 14, to end with the Lyridi of Juneactive around June 15th! Let’s prepare many desires!
As the UAI explains, in the heart of the month that welcomes the summer, and right in the days of the splendid Strawberry moonwe will admire the epsilon-cignidi that show the radiant (i.e. the point from which the swarm seems to start) placed in the constellation of Swan from which they take the name. The meteors of this swarm are bright and sometimes colorful, visible especially after midnight between 10 and 12 June (on the map the sky of 11 June 2025 to about 1.00).
But it does not end here, because the return of the Tau Herculidirelated to comet 73p/Schwassmann – Wachmann 3. The swarm, perhaps less known than others, is actually characterized by occasional outburst spectacular, the most recent of which is from 2022 Heaven of 13 June 2025 to about 1.00).
Finally, we do not miss the appointment with the Lyridi of Junepending around June 15th. Although even in this case the expected frequency is not very high, the swarm is known to offer fast and brilliant meteors from a high radiant in the sky, visible all night in the constellation of the Lirabetter to fall of the moon for a darker sky (on the map the Heaven of June 15th to about 1.00).
Let’s prepare many desires!
