Eta Aquariid Meteor Shower is back if you are looking for a reason to hang out with your special people this weekend.With around 15 to 20 meteors an hour during its peak, probably depending on where.
During the month of May, you can spot the Moon hanging out with Saturn twice, witness the Scorpion constellation's "heart" briefly disappearing, and enjoy the morning meteor show courtesy of Comet Halley.
Keep your fingers crossed for clear skies over the next few nights, because if we luck out and have little to no cloud cover in the skies you should get a really great look at what some astronomy experts are saying could be the best meteor shower of the year.
