💨 Abstract

The world's oldest known meteor shower, the Lyrids, will be visible from April 16 to April 25, peaking on April 22. The Lyrids originate from the trail left by comet C/1861 G1 Thatcher and can be seen with the naked eye. They move at 30 miles per second, heating up air particles and appearing as bright streaks in the sky.
