The Eta Aquariids meteor shower peaks from Granada around May 5-6, with up to 40 meteors per hour under ideal conditions. In 2026 a new moon means dark skies, and the radiant in Aquarius is best viewed after midnight. Local best viewing window: 2026-05-05 23:00:00 to 2026-05-06 04:00:00. Tonight: decent conditions, some gaps in clouds. The shower favours southern latitudes, but northern observers can still catch bright meteors low on the horizon before dawn.
