Get ready for a meteor shower doubleheader with the Southern Delta Aquariid and Alpha Capricornid meteor showers coinciding in late July and early August.

The Delta Aquariids meteor shower will peak shortly after midnight with up to 25 meteors per hour, best viewed without a telescope.

The best viewing time is around an hour after midnight when the sky is darkest, with clear skies expected in the south of England.

The Delta Aquariids meteor shower is expected to peak in the early hours of Tuesday morning, with stargazers anticipating 15 to 20 shooting stars per hour.
