It's Earth Day, a day to gather and celebrate our globe as well as spark conversations about how to help preserve Mother Earth. It's also happens to be the peak night for the Lyrid Meteor Shower.  

According to earthsky.org, you'll see more meteors streak across the sky in the overnight hours, prior to dawn, tonight (4/22 - 4/23).

In the video below, you'll get a better understanding of where to look. This kind of stuff make me giddy with boyhood excitement. I can't wait to stay up late and have a beer or two and enjoy some stuff I don't understand.

ENJOY!!!!
