Perseid meteor shower visibility

Spin the globe to reveal the meteor shower visibility

Yellow line: the Perseid radiant will pass directly overhead for all locations on this line (58 degrees north) in the early hours of the morning. Zone of disappointment (12–22 degrees south): on a perfect night, some Perseids will be visible in the early hours, but it will still be a disappointing show compared to your friends in the northern hemisphere. Semi-dead zone (32–22 degrees south): on a perfect night, in the early hours of the morning, you may see a small handful of meteors when the Perseids peak. Dead zone (32 degrees south and beyond): the region on Earth where you will never see the Perseids except through pictures on the internet.
