Following closely on the heels of the Lyrid meteor shower , the Aquardis (also sometimes spelled Aquardiis) meteors are some of the best astral views of the year, especially from the Southern Hemisphere. Luckily, the event will be viewable across the globe, giving stargazers one final chance to watch a shower until the next expected one in July.

Pro stargazers and novice spectators alike will want to get outside on May 5 to see the Eta Aquarid meteor shower.

The ETA Aquarids is set to peak in early May less than two weeks since the last meteor shower lit up the night sky, where in California to watch.
