The Lyrid meteor shower is in full swing, with dozens of shooting stars streaking through the sky each night. The shower is most active from Sunday night to Monday morning, but it will remain visible for the next week. To maximize your chances of spotting the Lyrids, find a spot with low light pollution and lie flat on your back with your feet facing east. After about 30 minutes, your eyes will adjust to the dark and you should start to see the meteors.
