When there are lots more meteors, you鈥檙e watching a meteor shower. Some meteor showers occur annually or at regular intervals as Earth passes through the trail of dusty debris left by a comet and, in a few cases, asteroids.</p> <p>Meteor showers are usually named after a star or constellation that is close to where the meteors appear to originate in the sky. Perhaps the most famous are the Perseids, which peak around August 12 every year. Every Perseid meteor is a tiny piece of the comet Swift-Tuttle, which swings by the Sun every 135 years. </p> <p>Other notable meteor showers include the Leonids, associated with comet Tempel-Tuttle; the Aquarids and Orionids, linked to comet Halley, and the Taurids, associated with comet Encke. </p> <p>Most of this comet debris is between the size of a grain of sand and a pea and burns up in the atmosphere before reaching the ground. Sometimes, meteor dust is captured by high-altitude aircraft and analyzed in NASA laboratories.</p> <div id="featuredmeteorshowers" class="hds-card-grid padding-top-7 padding-bottom-3 padding-x-0 hds-module hds-module-full wp-block-nasa-blocks-card-grid"> <div class="hds-card-grid-header grid-container grid-container-block"> <div class="grid-row flex-align-start margin-bottom-5"> <div class="desktop:grid-col-8 margin-bottom-2 desktop:margin-bottom-0"> <div class="margin-bottom-1"> <h2 class="section-heading-sm line-height-sm">Featured Meteor Showers</h2> </div> <p class="margin-0 padding-0">When to watch the most popular meteor showers.
