May 5, 6 - Eta Aquarids Meteor Shower.
Return to DiscussionsMay 5, 6 - Eta Aquarids Meteor Shower. The Eta Aquarids are a light shower, usually producing about 10 meteors per hour at their peak. The shower's peak usually occurs on May 5 & 6, however viewing should be good on any morning from May 4 - 7.

Best viewing is usually to the east after midnight, far from city lights.
