Two meteor showers —the Alpha Capricornids and Southern Delta Aquariids — reach their peaks this week. Here’s how to observe these celestial events.

Be sure to turn your eyes to the night sky, as brief flashes of light will streak through outer space on Tuesday night.

The Southern Delta Aquariid and the Alpha Capricornid showers will peak after midnight on July 29 and in the early hours of July 30.
