Let’s know more about the Perseid meteor shower and why it is worth witnessing\u00a0this spectacular phenomenon\u00a0in Wadi Rum.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Wadi Rum is one of those places on our planet that showcases the grandeur and magnificence of nature. It is humbling to realize how small and insignificant humans are in the natural world and its elements. As the sun sets, the night sky unveils an awe-inspiring and breathtaking sight with countless twinkling stars and solar systems. It showcases the infinity of the natural world that exists beyond our planet. This sight makes it even more evident how small and insignificant we are.<\/p>\n

If you gaze at the night sky frequently, you will notice that it is never the same due to various factors such as the size of the moon and the time of the year. However, nature has more to offer, such as the spectacle display of a meteor shower.<\/p>\n

General information about meteor showers:<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n
\u00a0<\/span><\/strong><\/div>\n

A\u00a0meteor shower<\/b><\/a>\u00a0is a celestial event in which a number of\u00a0meteors\u00a0are observed to radiate, or originate, from one point in the\u00a0night sky. These meteors are caused by streams of cosmic debris called\u00a0meteoroids\u00a0entering\u00a0Earth’s atmosphere\u00a0at extremely high speeds on parallel trajectories. Most meteors are smaller than a grain of sand, so almost all of them disintegrate and never hit the Earth’s surface.\u00a0<\/p>\n

In most years, the most visible meteor shower is the\u00a0Perseids, which peak on 12 August of each year at over one meteor per minute. NASA has a\u00a0tool\u00a0to calculate how many meteors per hour are visible from one’s observing location.<\/p>\n

The\u00a0Perseids<\/b>\u00a0are a prolific\u00a0meteor shower\u00a0associated with the\u00a0comet Swift\u2013Tuttle\u00a0that are usually visible from mid-July\u00a0to late-August. The\u00a0meteors\u00a0are called the Perseids because they appear from the general direction of the\u00a0constellation\u00a0Perseus\u00a0and in more modern times have a\u00a0radiant\u00a0bordering on\u00a0Cassiopeia\u00a0and\u00a0Camelopardalis.<\/p>\n

The Perseid meteor shower is an annual event that takes place between July and August, with its highest activity between the 11th and 13th of August. In 2023, the shower began on July 17th and end on August 24th. The peak of the meteor shower will occur on the night of the 12th and before dawn on 13 August, during which you may witness up to 100 meteors per hour! It\u2019s worth noting that the moon rises around 3 AM, so the best time to see shooting stars is during the evening and very early morning.<\/p>\n
