The nearer the Comet is to Earth, the greater the intensity of the shower and number of falling stars.<\/p>\n<p>According to the Instituto de Astrof\u00edsica de Canarias, the best time to look for the shower tonight is in the early hours of the morning, between midnight and five a.m., when the Perseo constellation is at the highest point of the horizon. The Canary Astrophysics Institute advises us to observe the phenomenon from an open space (beach, terrace, field&#8230;.) as far away as possible from town lights. We are advised to look towards the horizon and not use telescopes, because the wider the field of vision the better. <\/p>\n<p>Apparantly this year the shower&#8217;s intenstity will be greater than last year, so get your wishes ready!!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This evening people in Spain should be able to witness a host of falling stars shooting across the night sky.
