Science DiscussionsWhen gazing at the Southern Delta Aquarids, go outside in the early morning, just before dawn. Make sure you are away from any artificial lights so that you are in complete darkness. For those of you living in the Southern Hemisphere, the meteors will appear coming from its radiant (origin) high in the night sky. For people in the Northern Hemisphere, the meteors will appear to originate low in the sky, at just above the southern horizon, and spreading out in the northern, western, and eastern directions.
