US to see partial solar eclipse and Perseid meteor shower peak Aug 12-13

On August 12th and into the early morning of August 13th, skywatchers in the U.S. can witness a partial solar eclipse followed by the peak of the Perseid meteor shower. While the eclipse will be less dramatic than previous total eclipses, a nearly moonless night is expected to provide excellent viewing conditions for the meteor shower. The deepest partial eclipse will be visible in states like Maine and Alaska, with rural areas in the northeastern U.S. offering the best combined viewing experience for both celestial events. AI
