Meteor showers

The oldest written record of Perseidas originates in China, while the systematic observation and recording started in the 19th century. The showers were named in 1899, after the constellation from which the meteors seemingly come. If the night is dark an average of 60 Perseidas can be seen every hour. In diverse meteorological conditions that number falls to 30, while the highest ever recorded number was 200 Perseidas in a single hour.
