Stargazers hoping to witness the Eta Aquarid meteor shower this week may find their view hampered by a bright moon, which is set to diminish the celestial display. The annual shower, originating from debris left by Halley's Comet, will reach its peak on Tuesday night into Wednesday morning. While observers in the Southern Hemisphere typically enjoy up to 50 meteors per hour, the interfering moonlight could halve this number. Those in the Northern Hemisphere are expected to see fewer than 10 meteors hourly, making the spectacle particularly challenging to glimpse. "For us in the Northern Hemisphere, it's not going to be as impressive," said Teri Gee, manager of the Barlow Planetarium in Wisconsin. "The farther south you are, the better you'll see it." Meteor showers happen when the Earth charges through trails of debris left behind from comets or asteroids. Those bits collide with Earth's atmosphere at extremely high speeds, producing streaks of light that are also known as shooting stars.…
