Kettle Posted August 12, 2003 Posted August 12, 2003 Skywatchers are preparing for the annual Perseid meteor shower, which should peak in the early hours (0200 BST, 0100 GMT) of Wednesday 13 August. This year, Perseid observers are in for an added treat because a very bright planet, Mars, is also in sight. - BBC See also http://www.space.com/spacewatch/moon_mars_030811.html for better coverage of the full display - Moon, Mars and Stars
