ISS captures Lyrid meteor shower streaking over Earth
NASA astronaut Jessica Meir photographed the Lyrid meteor shower from the International Space Station as it peaks around April 21–22, showcasing up to 15–20 meteors per hour radiating from the Lyra constellation and originating from debris left by long-period comet C/1861 G1 Thatcher; the image highlights Earth's thin atmosphere and the unique perspective of observing skywatching from space.
