Aurigids meteor shower peak poorly visible due to bright moonlight on September 1

The peak of the Aurigids meteor shower, expected on the night of September 1, will be poorly visible due to the bright light of the Moon. The first autumn meteor shower is characterized by a small number of meteors but periodically shows outbursts. One such outburst, in 1935, allowed scientists to discover this meteor stream.
