Local astronomer Scott Negley will review the Perseid meteor shower, which will be peaking in the early morning hours of August 13th. Scott’s “Out of the Sky” talk will feature a variety of space wonders, including comets, meteors, and asteroids, that have fascinated stargazers for years. If weather permits after the indoor presentation, a star party will be held outside to view the summer constellations and catch some of the Perseid meteors in action.
