Starting on 12 July, the Delta Aquariid meteor shower begins its annual display, peaking on the nights of 28 and 29 July.
Stargazers can expect between 15 and 20 meteors an hour especially in dark-sky locations, but you’ll need to be up after midnight to see them.
While they’re best viewed from the southern hemisphere, observers in the northern hemisphere should still catch a decent show.
They are believed to originate from Comet 96P/Machholz, a short-period comet that orbits the Sun every five years.
The meteors tend to be faint, so darker skies will enhance visibility, especially around the new Moon on 24 July when it could also be possible to see parts of the Milky Way.
