Fiona Lopez a NSF Research Experiences for Undergraduates fellow at the Maria Mitchell Association, discusses the Perseid meteor shower which is considered the best meteor shower of the year, will peak around August 11-12, offering an amazing display with up to 100 meteors visible per hour.

Clouds will cover much of the state Wednesday. With luck, they'll clear in the evening so you can get a look at the night sky. Each year around this time, the earth rotates through a trail of space debris. When these hunks of asteroids and comet particles burn up in our atmosphere, they give off the impression that stars are shooting across the sky. It's called the Perseid meteor shower and it is happening now — but it will peak Aug. 10-12. The darker the setting, the more brilliant the show. That's why Voyageurs National Park on Minnesota's northern border is a great place to watch the Perseids and other astronomical events.Jesse Gates is a dark sky specialist with the Voyageurs Conservancy and he joined Minnesota Now to talk about what's going on at the park and what makes it such an ideal place for stargazing.

Is this the year you finally see the Perseid meteor shower? Will you be traveling to see the big solar eclipse? Can you catch a glimpse at one of the comets streaking through the sky? On this week's episode of Peak Northwest, we dive into some of the coolest astronomical events coming in 2024 – adjust your stargazing calendars accordingly. And while many of these events can be seen in your own backyard, they're always better viewed under clear, dark skies. That could mean a trip to some of Oregon's best stargazing spots, like Steens Mountain and the Prineville Reservoir. After all, beautiful landscapes and cosmic events pair nicely. Here are some highlights from this week's show: Two comets are expected to be visible this year, one in spring and another in fall. A total solar eclipse will cross America, but the Pacific Northwest won't get much of a show. It's a tough year for meteor showers, but there are still a few good options. The supermoon lunar eclipse should be a good show. Subscribe to Peak Northwest on Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, Spotify or anywhere you listen to podcasts. Learn more about your ad choices.

Today is special as for the very first time, we brought back a former podcast guest. That happens even less frequently than a Perseid meteor shower or a Triple Jovian Eclipse. Chris is back to share some of the highly effective communication tools he's developed since we last spoke on Episode 127 when The First Minute was released back in May, 2021. Since then his two books have won quite a number of impressive awards!!! Chris' technical background gives him particularly useful insight in that important communication flow between the IT side and the business side of any company. Chris and Laura are both astounded at the level of complexity we all manage on a daily basis, and the cognitive load and the pace of change are only going to get heavier, which makes communication even more challenging. Stop what you're doing, grab your pencil ✏️ and note down these these Swiss-Army knife quality takeaways and more!

We have a new podcast! It's called Universe Of Art, and it's all about artists who use science to bring their creations to the next level. Listen on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcasts.     In ‘The Pod Generation,' Pregnancy Goes High-Tech In the new movie The Pod Generation, a wife named Rachel, played by Emilia Clarke, and her husband Alvy, played by Chiwetel Ejiofor, want to start a family. In the movie's near future, you don't have to have a baby by getting pregnant, or using IVF, or going through a surrogate. If you're lucky, you can get a reservation at The Womb Center, where you can grow your baby inside a convenient, high-tech, egg-shaped pod. Pressured by her friends and her work's HR department, Rachel decides to give The Womb Center a shot. Science Friday producer and Universe of Art host D. Peterschmidt sat down with the film's writer and director, Sophie Barthes, to talk about what inspired her to make the movie, and what may be lost in the thoughtless pursuit of technology.     The Rising Tide Against Deep Sea Mining The ocean's seabed is filled with minerals like copper, nickel, and cobalt—the very raw materials that tech companies use to make electronics and batteries. Some view it as fertile ground to mine and exploit, launching an underwater mining rush. Last month, world leaders gathered in Kingston, Jamaica to hash out the future of deep sea mining. For years, the International Seabed Authority—the organization in charge of authorizing and controlling mineral operations on the seafloor—has been trying and failing to put together a set of guidelines for deep sea mining.  Ira talks with Dr. Diva Amon, marine biologist at the Benioff Ocean Science Laboratory at the University of California Santa Barbara and director of the non-profit SpeSeas, based in Trinidad and Tobago. They talk through the science of deep sea mining, the policies being debated, and what the world risks losing. Then, Ira talks with Solomon Pili Kahoʻohalahala, Chairperson of the non-profit Maui Nui Makai Network and Native Hawaiian Elder of the Papahānaumokuākea Marine National Monument Advisory Council.     August Skies Set To Dazzle August is shaping up to be a great month for stargazing, with or without a telescope. Celestial wonders such as a Perseid meteor shower and a Super Blue Moon will take place soon. Saturn will also be lit up for the remainder of August, and should be visible to the naked eye on a clear night. Joining Ira to talk about what we can see this month in the night sky is astronomer, author, and podcaster Dean Regas. Regas also talks about recently leaving his long tenure at the Cincinnati Observatory, and what's next for his love for astronomy.     To stay updated on all-things-science, sign up for Science Friday's newsletters.

One of the year's best meteor showers will be at its best the next couple of nights. Under dark skies, you should see up to a few dozen “shooting stars” per hour — especially tomorrow night, at the shower's peak. The Perseid meteor shower gets its name from the constellation Perseus. If you track the meteors across the sky, that's where their paths converge. But the meteors can appear anywhere, so you don't need to look toward the constellation to see them. The view is better when Perseus climbs higher into the sky, though, in the wee hours of the morning. While the shower gets its name from Perseus, it gets its meteors from Comet Swift-Tuttle — a mountain-sized ball of ice and rock that orbits the Sun once every 133 years or so. As the comet gets close to the Sun, it warms up. Some of its ice vaporizes, and small bits of ice, rock, and dirt fly out into space. These particles spread out along the comet's orbit. Earth zips through the trail of comet dust every summer. Bits of debris ram into the atmosphere at more than a hundred thousand miles per hour. They vaporize, forming the glowing streaks of light known as meteors. To watch the Perseids, find a dark but safe viewing site, well away from the glow of city lights. The best view comes in the hours before dawn on Sunday. The Moon will be a thin crescent, so it won't spoil the show put on by the Perseids — one of the year's best meteor showers.  Script by Damond Benningfield Support McDonald Observatory

Be sure to catch the Perseid Meteor Shower this weekend (Aug. 12-13, 2023) , weather permitting! If the weather is bad or you can't see them, however, hopefully this episode will be the next best thing! What is a meteor shower, anyway? What do they mean? Where can you see them? Wayne and Dan attempt to answer these and other burning questions about this weekend's Perseid fireworks!

A big cosmic show is coming this weekend, and conditions should be good to see it from Oregon. The annual Perseid meteor shower, one of the most reliably spectacular astronomical events of the year, will be peaking on Aug. 12 and 13, bringing beautiful streaking meteors to the night sky. On this week's episode of Peak Northwest, we talk all about how, when and where to see the Perseids, and explain what exactly it is you'll be looking at. Here are some highlights from this week's show: What are the Perseids? Why this year is a particularly good year to watch the meteor shower. Some of the best dark sky locations to watch the show. Star parties are a great way to watch the meteor shower with likeminded people, and learn a little more about the cosmos.

What are some skywatching highlights in August 2023? Saturn reaches opposition this month, meaning it's at its biggest and brightest for the year, and visible all night. The "shooting stars" of the annual Perseid meteors are a must-see, overnight on August 12th. And this month brings two full moons – the second of which is a "Super Blue Moon."

Parts of Kentucky are still recovering after flooding this week — one year after areas in the eastern part of the state were devastated by flooding. Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear joins us. And, Greta Gerwig's new film "Barbie" might look pretty in pink — but it also tackles heady themes. The director discusses her vision, the legacy of the controversial doll and how she collaborated with star Margot Robbie. Then, the Perseid meteor shower is one of the most dramatic celestial events of the summer. Sky & Telescope's Kelly Beatty explains how to best witness the highly anticipated meteor shower and the rich history behind their discovery.
