The show won't be quite as spectacular as it was on Monday, but the Eta Aquarids meteor shower is still set to light up the sky over Canada late Tuesday night and early Wednesday morning.
Eta Aquarids will be visible in the night sky at a rate of less than half what they were on Monday, and those in the southern hemisphere are likely to see more than in the north. However, the show should be visible just about everywhere in the world except the Arctic, according to NASA astronomer Bill Cooke.
Meteors will be visible any time after dark but the Eta Aquarids themselves cannot be seen until after 2:30 a.m. local time, when the Aquarius constellation comes over the horizon. They'll be most visible after 4 a.m. local time.
Special equipment is not necessary to view the shower; all you need is your eyes, NASA says. The best way to see them is to lie on your back in a location away from city lights.
The Eta Aquarids are debris from Halley's Comet, whose trail Earth passes through at around this time every year, CBC News reported.
Meteors in the shower are so named because it appears to take place in the constellation Aquarius.
It extends over three nights, with the last coming on Wednesday (May 7), AccuWeather.com reported.
The Eta Aquarids are one of two meteor showers that come from Halley's debris tail. The other is the Orionids, which occur in October.
