PERSEID METEOR SHOWER: The Perseid meteor shower is intensifying as Earth
moves deeper into the debris stream of parent comet 109P/Swift-Tuttle.
International observers are reporting as many as 30 Perseids per hour
from dark sky sites, a rate which could triple on August 12-13 when the
shower peaks. Check http://spaceweather.com for updates and observing
tips.
