With clear skies in the forecast for tonight, you have the perfect opportunity to witness an incredible and rare celestial event.
At approximately 10:50 p.m., and lasting for only 15 minutes, the Alpha Monocerotid Meteor Shower will spray meteors at us at a rate of 400 meteors per hour.
The last time such an unforgettable burst of meteors occurred from this shower, was in 1995.
The stream moves in and out of the Earth's orbit, which is why large outbursts such as tomorrow night's, are only occasional.
Astronomers recommend heading to a dark location, with a clear field of view, looking east.
