BDN cites Versant Power Astronomy Center in article about Perseid Meteor Shower
The Bangor Daily News cited information from the University of Maine’s Versant Power Astronomy Center stating that this year’s last supermoon comes right in the middle of the Perseid shower. A supermoon occurs when the moon is as close as possible to the Earth, making it appear slightly larger. The end of this week marks the best time of summer to see the Perseid meteor shower.
