About Eta Aquariid Meteor Shower
The Eta Aquariid Meteor Shower peaks on the night of May 5 with up to 50 meteors per hour for southern-hemisphere viewers, fewer up north. The dust comes from Halley's Comet — the same comet that produces the Orionids in October. Eta Aquariids are known for fast meteors (66 km/s) that often leave glowing trails. Activity lingers into late May.
