Tadros wrote on his official Facebook page, a post, whose content came: These meteors are seen as if they were from the lyra constellation (the guitar), which is the reason for its name, and the meteors produce the guilt of the guilty of the Tancher Tancher that discovered in 1861.
The astronomer added, that the number of meteors in it reaches about 20 meteors per hour and can be seen with a healthy naked eye on the condition of the darkness of the sky and free of clouds and dust, and the best viewing is from a completely dark place away from the city’s lighting after midnight.
Earlier, astronomers were able to take direct pictures of the mysterious polar twilight of Neptune, thanks to the JWST.
According to Sinns Life, scientists have always suspected that Neptune showed sparkling light shows, based on the notes of the Voyager 2 probe while passing the planet, as well as monitoring similar phenomena on the planets of Jupiter, Saturn and Uranus.
However, taking pictures of this event remained out of reach, until the James Web telescope faced his strong look towards this ice giant.
Henrik Milin of the University of Nurutberia, who conducted the research while studying at the University of Leicester, explained: It turned out that filming the polar twilight activity on Neptune was only possible using a nearby infrared web telescope.
