The Southern Delta Aquariids meteor shower peaks from Rovaniemi around Jul 29-30, with up to 25 meteors per hour under ideal conditions. From Rovaniemi the radiant in Aquarius barely clears the horizon, peaking at just 7°, far too low for the Southern Delta Aquariids to amount to anything. In 2026 a bright moon will hide most meteors except the brightest, but you would need to travel toward the southern hemisphere to catch this one. Tonight: intermittent cloud, so patience pays off.
