The delta-Delta meteors peak this year from Sunday, July 28 at midnight and Monday, July 29, before sunrise, with the Egyptian sky and the Arab world.
In a report, the Jeddah Astronomical Society revealed that the Dalatian delta of medium-sized meteors, of which about 5 to 10% are low and at medium speed, leaves behind a fiery gas trail that lasts a second or two after the day. to have crossed..
The report continues: active every year at the end of July, because the Earth during its orbiting the sun pbades through the path of the comet (96P / McHulz) at this time of the year, when debris left by this comet flows at a speed of up to 20 mph per hour..
The Dalaiat Delta is one of the longest annual meteors. Its activity extends over a week after its peak and this year, there will be no significant impact on the vision of the moon. In front of the group Aquarius Stars but visible from everywhere in the Dome of the Sky.
Annual meteorite rains are known to occur as the Earth traverses debris scattered along the orbits of comets and asteroids, where gravel collides with the upper atmosphere and burns at an altitude of 70 to 100 km above from the surface of the Earth..
According to the report, the best time to observe the delta will be around 1 am and before dawn, given the orientation of the southeast horizon. The surveillance should be placed in a dark place, away from the lights of the city, and the observer should give himself at least an hour to see. And the human eye also needs about 20 minutes to adapt in the dark. It is not necessary to use special equipment to see the meteors, but to the naked eye, regardless of the location where the observer is in his country. origin.
The meteoroids of the delta are observed in the northern and southern hemispheres of the Earth, but tend to be best observed in the southern hemisphere of the equator, south of the equator and north of the equator. Equator, better to see in the tropics.
