The night of Friday, May 23 and the early morning of the 24th will see the most spectacular phenomenon ever seen in the skies of North America, a meteor shower called Camelopardalids" by NASA which might surpass the beauty of the Perdeids, according to the American Agency.

Through a press release, NASA detailed that the so called Camelopardalids are comprised of dust from a periodic comet baptized as 209/LINEAR, forecasting a meteor shower of over 200 objects per hour.

Bill Cooke, of NASA's Meteoroid Environment Office, highlighted that despite not having detailed information on the behavior of the comet or what it might be doing, the progenitor comet seems to lack much activity, and there could either be a great show or very little activity in the sky.

Experts say that the best moment to appreciate the natural show will be between 2:00 a.m. and 4:00 a.m. EDT on May 24, moment in which the Earth is in a better position to meet with the remains of the comet.

The peoples of North America, Mexico, the United States and Canada will be the most privileged viewers of this phenomenon, since the peak hour of the comet's passing will happen during the early morning of the 24th for Mexico and the United States, allowing for a better appreciation of the Camelopardalids shower.

Bill Cooke added that NASA will offer a live chat starting at 11:00 p.m. on May 23 and until 3:00 a.m. of the next day, where fans will be able to ask the experts questions regarding the phenomenon.

The name of this meteor shower comes from the fact that "they come from a point in the Cameloradalis, also known as 'the giraffe', a weak constellation close to the Northern Star," said Cooke.
