(Getty Images/iStockphoto) CONCORD, CA One thing we ve all learned in Concord over the last year is the enjoyment of simple pleasures like nights spent under a canopy of stars. It s even better when fireballs blaze across the sky the brighter-than-normal shooting stars that the Lyrid meteor shower starting this week is known for producing. There hasn t been much beyond the ordinary to stare up at in the nighttime sky since the Quadrantid meteor shower that ushered in 2021. But that changes this month with the Lyrids, which start Friday and run for two weeks through Friday, April 30.
