Qatar Calendar House, on 4 May 2024, has said that the Eta Aquarid meteor shower will reach its peak on Saturday, 4 May 2024, evening and will extend until the dawn of 5 May 2024.
مساء اليوم السبت ستصل شهب #ايتا_الدلويات ذروتها، وستمتد حتى فجر الغد، ويمكن رؤيتها باتجاه الأفق الجنوبي الشرقي لسماء دولة #قطر من بعد منتصف الليل وحتى فجر الأحد، ويُفضل الرصد من الأماكن البعيدة عن الملوثات الضوئية والبيئية، ويعتبر مذنب #هالي هو مصدر حدوث زخة شهب إيتا الدلويات. pic.twitter.com/Ttf6klgs1n
