๐ โNot all stars belong to the sky โ some fall just to remind us to dream.โ
This August, watch the sky come alive as over 100 shooting stars an hour streak across the heavens in one of natureโs grandest shows โ the Perseid Meteor Shower.
We at Astrostops Stays invite you to experience this magical event during Starfall Night โ a 2N/3D astronomy retreat in Nainital from 15th to 17th August 2025. Set against the stunning backdrop of Uttarakhandโs mountains, this celestial getaway is designed to blend nature, astronomy, and unforgettable memories.
๐ What Is the Perseid Meteor Shower?
The Perseids are an annual meteor shower that occurs when the Earth passes through debris left behind by Comet Swift-Tuttle. These tiny particles enter our atmosphere at incredible speeds, creating fiery trails that light up the night sky.
The meteor shower appears to originate from the Perseus constellation, hence the name “Perseids.” In 2025, the peak viewing time is mid-August โ and with clear skies in Nainital, you’ll have one of the best seats on Earth to enjoy it.
