Look up, astronomy fans: The Lyrid meteor shower is set to peak overnight Sunday into Monday, according to NASA. The moon will be in its waxing gibbous stage as the full moon nears, which will make it difficult to see meteors. Even in ideal conditions away from city lights, only a few meteors per hour are expected to be visible to the naked eye.

The Eta Aquariids are one of two annual meteor showers that result as the Earth passes through the debris field of Halley’s Comet, which orbits the sun every 76 years. According to the American Meteor Society, some experts predict that this year’s Aquariids will be quite strong due to interactions of those particles with the planet Jupiter.

One of the oldest known meteor showers is streaking through the sky above California. The Lyrid meteor shower was first recorded in 687 B.C. and has been studied for more than 2,000 years, according to NASA.

Lyrid meteor shower comes from bits of the comet Thatcher, which was discovered in 1861 by New York City resident Alfred Thatcher.
