Perseid Meteor Shower 2013: Watch online

The Perseid meteor shower is hitting its peak this weekend, and you can watch the action live, right here.

Sky watchers who want to see nature's fireworks show in person should plan to look to the heavens between 10:30 p.m. and 4:30 a.m. PDT, but the online telescope Slooh.com is offering an early sneak peak at the annual August meteor shower beginning at 4 p.m. Pacific time.

The live video feed, which you can see above, will be streamed from the website's telescope in the Canary Islands.
