Perseid Meteors to Appear in Qatar Sky
The Perseid meteor shower is expected to be visible in the sky of Qatar on the night of Thursday, August 13, 2026, with its peak occurring between midnight and dawn. The rate of meteors is estimated to range between 60 and 100 per hour. This phenomenon results from Earth's proximity to dust particles left by the Swift-Tuttle comet. The shower is named after the constellation Perseus. Observers in Qatar can see the meteors with the naked eye from locations away from light pollution, while using long-exposure cameras is recommended to capture spectacular images. It is worth noting that the Moon will be in the crescent phase, so it will not obstruct the view.
