August will see the Perseids maximum over Singapore between August 12 and August 13, according to the Time and Date site.
According to a previous statement from SCOB, it is known as one of the lighter annual showers and bears the name “because it originates in the same constellation as Perseus.”
According to Time and Date, the Geminids may reach their highest point on December 13 through December 14.
We advise stargazers to assess the stars ‘ positions and stargaze later into the night, as with every meteor shower time, as with all other seasons,” said SCOB.
The best locations to get asteroid showers, according to the station, would be open, unobstructed areas with little light pollution, such as character parks, beaches, and reservoirs.
Avoid stargazing straight at the bright stars and instead focus your attention on the obscure regions that surround it to see the meteor streaks. When stargazing in the dark, taking appropriate safety precautions, it added.
SUPERMOONS
From August through November, there will be four occurrences in a row.
The Sturgeon Moon’s full moon will be a Blue Moon because it will be the next full moon of the year, according to SCOB, while the one in October may be closest to Earth.
” While there is no standard description for the would, these four whole moons in August, September, October and November occur when the sky is somewhat nearer to the Earth, causing it to look brighter and more important,” said SCOB.
Stargazers should also take note that the appearance of the moon may change depending on the setting of the sun and the viewing spot, it continued.
