Two minor meteor showers — the Southern Delta Aquariids and Alpha Capricornids — peak overnight on July 29-30, making it a great night for stargazing.

In late July, the meteors radiate near the area of Alpha Capricorni, a double star visible to the naked eye. This area of the sky rises in the east at about 8 p.m. Local Daylight Time, but very little activity can be seen at this time because many of the meteors are blocked by the horizon.
