Today's Spaceweather.com headline reads as follows (August 7, 2007)...

COUNTDOWN TO THE PERSEIDS: Earth has entered a stream of debris from Comet Swift-Tuttle and this is causing meteors to flow out of the constellation Perseus. The Perseid meteor rate is low now (< 5 per hour), but it is building to an impressive peak (~100 per hour) due Sunday night, August 12th. Get the full story from Science@NASA.

So have you made your plans for meteor watching this weekend??
