If you are a star gazer, you need to be ready for a show this upcoming weekend! The Persid Meteor Shower will be at its peak this weekend.  The moon will be at a crescent, which means more darkness to see more meteors. The peak of the meteor shower will be August 11th - 13th. According to an article at CBS Denver, you should be able to see 60-70 meteors per hour.
