The Delta Aquarid meteor shower, which some experts believe is caused by Comet 69P/Machholz, a comet which is believed to be from a completely different solar system, is all set a show this week.

The best time to watch this cosmic event is between moonset and sunrise on early Wednesday morning. Astronomers said the meteor shower started on July 12 and it is expected to continue until August 23.

Astronomers suggest that stargazers who want to get a clear view of the shower's shooting stars should gaze up at the sky a few hours before dawn at about 2 am because at that time the stars are easy to see and are most frequent, with up to 15 or 20 meteors per hour.

People living in cities might find it hard to see the celestial show, therefore NASA experts have suggested that people must find a place away from urban light pollution or find a location with a clear, unclouded view of the night sky.

This week's Delta Aquarid meteor shower will keep stargazers busy. Slooh will broadcast a Delta Aquarids live stream for the meteor showers peak beginning at 9 p.m. EDT Tuesday.

According to NASA, the Delta Aquarids is a minor meteor shower that can be viewed around the world. Residents of the Southern Hemisphere and the Northern Hemisphere tropics will have the best vantage point for Tuesday's peak.

Experts said that the full moon later this week can be a hurdle in viewing the breathtaking event in the sky, as the bright light from Earth's satellite will make viewing the Delta Aquarids difficult during the evening.
