Today:
The Delta Aquariid Meteor shower is near its broad peak in activity, lasting from mid-July to mid-August. Alongside it this year is the Alpha Capricornids, its meteors less frequent but tending to move more slowly across the sky. The Moon won’t be an issue during peak viewing, from roughly midnight to 4:00 AM.
Thursday:
Late July offers a view of the W-shaped pattern of stars climbing into the northeast, about one third of the way up this evening, forming the basis of the throne for the Queen, Cassiopeia. It is tipped on its back during the summer, gradually climbing higher each evening, so that it is completely upside-down, later this fall.
