The full moon occurs on the 9th in the constellation of Aquarius — the Perseid meteor showers peak from August 11-13. Venus and Jupiter conjoin for a summer kiss as the two planets will shine bright together at just a degree apart on August 11 and 12, according to NASA. The two planets will be visible to the east before sunrise.

In this edition of WTOP’s monthly space feature, “What’s up in the sky?” Greg Redfern tells you how to see the moon, planets, stars and Perseid meteor shower.
