The Perseid Meteor Shower starts in July. It is made up of hundreds of meteors streaking across the sky in a beautiful natural firework show, which is visible around the world.
The meteors hit the Earth's atmosphere at a whopping speed of 134,000 mph, but don't pose any danger to us on Earth.
The Perseids - pronounced 'Per-see-ids' - are actually tiny pieces of the Swift-Tuttle comet that can be seen every year when the Earth passes through a cloud of the comet's debris.
Did you know?
The average speed for a Perseid meteor is 36 miles per SECOND!
The pieces of ice and dust which make up the shower can be as small as a grain of sand or as big as a pea.
They were left behind when Swift-Tuttle passed close to Earth - the last time being in 1992.
