The Southern Delta Aquariids are active alongside the trusty Perseid meteor shower.

The best time to view the Perseids is between midnight and dawn, according to the society. A good day to view them is Thursday, July 24. That's when the new moon is, according to the Farmers' Almanac. This will make the night skies darker and optimal for stargazing.

The window for the most sought-after meteor showers of summer officially kicks off as skywatchers await the arrival of the Perseids meteor showers, which are forecasted to be active from July 17 through August 23.
