A once-in-a-lifetime celestial event happened in the United States this year for millions of people. But if you were unable to attend and are experiencing FOMO, don’t worry; there will still be plenty of events to attend in the coming days. There are a lot of cosmic phenomenon to watch in 2024, from full moons to lunar eclipses to meteor showers.

This week’s astronomical events are listed below.

Lyrids Meteor Shower | April 15-29

In the wake of the dazzling Lyrid meteor shower, shadowy trails can be seen for several seconds after it passes. April 22 is the peak day for this year’s event. It is likely that this year’s full moon will impair viewing, so pick a dark location with a clear sky for the best viewing. Apparently, these meteors are originated from the constellation Lyra, whose radiant point is located in the north of the sky.. As a result, Southern Hemisphere observers may see fewer Lyrid meteors
