The Perseid meteor shower, known for bright meteors, will see reduced visibility this year, with only 10 to 20 meteors per hour expected due to the bright August full moon.

This story originally appeared in Los Angeles Times. Summer's most dazzling meteor shower, the Perseids, peaks early Wednesday. At the same time, Venus and Jupiter will converge in the sky — overlapping like a very bright star.

It’s finally time to watch one of the best meteor showers of the year: the brilliant display known as the Perseids. The Perseid meteor shower, which is known for producing dozens of bright meteors that leave long streaks in their wake, is set to peak at 4 p.m. ET Tuesday.
