Up to 20 meteors an hour will be flying across New Zealand skies tonight.
Three meteor showers are combining this weekend.
Otago Museum director and astronomer Ian Griffins told Heather du Plessis Allan there's no moon so it's a great time to see it.
“If you've got a decent view of the sky and a relatively dark spot, you'll see quite a few meteors. And it's not just tonight, it's over the whole weekend.”
