Ready to see the 'tears of Halley'?

These are the details of the next shower of stars....

The Universe is something wonderful, with all its mysteries and astronomical phenomena that surprise us every day. The constellations, the phases of the moon, the magnetic storms and other natural spectacles are the delight of all the people who like to observe the sky. In the last hours of May 6 the first of day 7, we will witness a very special event. Throughout the world you will see a shower of stars called 'tears of Halley'. The phenomenon receives this name, because it is made up of the remains of the famous Halley comet.

It is also known as Eta Acuáridas stela rain and is of great intensity. Thanks to this, it can be observed from any part of the planet, even without special instruments. It is estimated that a meteor can be seen per minute, although everything depends on the visibility in the sky for that date. It should be noted that Halley's current orbit is not close enough to the Earth to 'drop' the meteors. What happens is that these remains were detached from the comet hundreds of years ago and now make up the Eta Aquarids, a group that seems to focus on the constellation of Aquarius.
