Next period of activity: April 14th, 2026 to April 30th, 2026
The Lyrids are a medium strength shower that usually produces good rates for three nights centered on the maximum. These meteors also usually lack persistent trains but can produce fireballs. These meteors are best seen from the northern hemisphere where the radiant is high in the sky at dawn. Activity from this shower can be seen from the southern hemisphere, but at a lower rate. In 2026, maximum activity is predicted to occur near 20 UT on April 22nd. On this date the waxing crescent moon will set before the radiant reaches a favorable elevation therefore lunar interference will be minimal in 2026.
