Let’s not get caught unprepared, we keep a long list of desires for Lyridsthe splendid falling stars al peak in the night between 21 and 22 Aprilthe evening of Easter Monday. The swarm, one of the oldest and fascinating, is characterized by fast meteors that can leave splendid light trails in the sky. Let’s get ready for the wonderful show!
As the UAI explains, the culmination of the meteoric activity of Lyrids It is expected for the night between 21 and 22 April and, also thanks to their speed of about 49 km/s, draw rapid and bright trails in the sky starting from their radiant, or the point from which they seem to start, located in the constellation of lira from which they take the name (on the map the Heaven of April 22 to about 1.00).
Even if the moon was full on April 13th And therefore on the evening of the 21st bright, after midnight this brightness will begin to vanish, giving observers an average of About 12 meteors per hour.
Perfect for so many wishes!
